Hey, I'm Messy!

Lorna left for Albuquerque yesterday. Other than a couple of delays with her flights in and out of Chicago she had a nice trip. She sounds like she is having a great time. She has been gone now 24 hours and I realized how messy I have become! Normally, I toss my clothes anywhere and they work their own way into the hamper (That's why I get the materials with advanced blends). And, there are dishes all over the place! Stupid things. I need to stop using them. I had to clean up after myself. I'm annoying! I better start paying more attention before Marlee gets here. ;)

Lorna goes to Albuquerque

Ha....that title reminds me of the 80's band "Frankie goes to Hollywood"...perhaps I'm dating myself! Anyway, I'm heading out tomorrow morning to spend a long weekend with my friend Maureen and explore the American southwest. We still don't know exactly when our referral will arrive, but I've made sure our adoption agency has all the right numbers "just in case"! In the meantime, I plan to check out Maureen's new healing center "Sanjevani", and take a look around the Albuquerque and Santa Fe area. It should be a fun girls' weekend, and I'll post photos when I return.

Marlee's nursery

Here is the nursery we've created for Marlee. Actually, it's the second nursery we've created for Marlee! As most of you know, we relocated during our long, long wait, so we had to do this twice. It was, however, a labor of love. Now all we need is Marlee. Stay tuned...

Let it be

It's been a long and winding road on this journey to getting Marlee. Over the past few years many of our friends have joined in our excitement and intention. Today, we get to visit with our friends Jim and Kim, and Kevin and Jamie in Louisville, Kentucky. We are attending a Beatles Abbey Road Festival in a beautiful downtown park by the River. It should be a great time and wonderful to see our friends. Can't wait!

Almost there!

We have been planning the adoption of our daughter "Marlee" for a few years now. Our official log-in date was January 16, 2006 and finally, we are expecting our referral to be coming in the next batch! We are both so excited! Rumor has it that the matchings are currently underway and the referrals are soon to follow! We may be hearing something by the first week of June or sooner! We will be posting as soon as we hear something so check in often! Talk to you all shortly.
