This photo is from a dinner and dance we went to last weekend at the Legion with a few other couples. One of our staff members is a member of our local legions Colour Guard and they were having a fund raiser so our Chapel bought a table. What a great evening we all had, complete with much dancing and laughing!!

Well, It has been awhile since I have been able to post on here.....we have just been so busy!!

Work has been hectic and we have been trying to get the baby room finished before the Children's Aid visit today.

But, as luck would have it, we got the call today that our worker was sick and would not be able to make the visit. Understanding being sick, it still sucked!

We had been so anxious for this day....that build up that does not leave you prepared for the letdown. Her secretary told us that she would be rescheduling with us for next week......that provided much relief amongst the disappointment.

But the good news........the baby room is all done!!!!!!

We finally found the most perfect bedding for the crib....it's a Boyd's Bear set. Coincidentally, I have forever collected Boyd's Bears and have always had a love for teddy bears. So, the second I laid my eyes on it, we both knew it was the one.

And from there, everything came together.

The room that we chose to use for our little one that will be coming to us through our domestic adoption he room was one of our spare bedrooms that had been painted a mahogany colour. Since we will be moving shortly after our adoption happens, we did not want to put too much work into the room. Wanting to avoid putting on a million coats of paint to cover the dark walls, we decided to utilize, match and soften what was there. .........

And voila....

A perfect bedroom for our little one.

I tried to take photo's of the room, but with the shape of it, I can only take 1/4 at a time....which looks silly.

What I can get a photo of is, our beautiful crib.........

We just love our little one's bedroom.....

We walk into the room all the time just to surround ourselves with the comfort of our future.

This weekend we are heading home to visit Ant'z parents in Timmins. It is Mom & Dad's 40th wedding anniversary on Sunday and we are having a celebration family dinner for them.

Mom & Dad's siblings, along with their spouse's will be present.....us us kids and one grandson!! (Sadly, because miles separate us, Darrin, Robin and Jack can't be present.) sigh

It will be nice to be home and spend time with the whole family.......it's not often that is able to happen.
