We had a huge snow storm this weekend. I think we got about 6 inches. And week before last we had sub-zero temperatures. And, well I'm really done with winter. So I've put my order in for some warmer weather to melt all this snow that has hung around all winter. Now that it is February I'm hoping we are on the down hill slide of winter. We did have a fun weekend tho. On Saturday we took our kids (Jake & Faith) for a ride in our new truck. We've been wanting to take them out to see how they will ride in the backseat together (we used to have a tahoe that had much more room, now we have a crew cab pickup). Jake looked like a person sitting on the backseat looking out the window. We went up to the Naches feeding station to see the Elk. There were probably 600 of them feeding and the babies were so cute. Jake just stared at them, but Faith felt she needed to bark and whine hoping we'd let her out so she could show them how tough she is.. haha! Then on Sunday we went to Don's parents with my sis & her fiance' to watch the superbowl. Well I mostly just wanted to eat & watch the commercials, but hey I won $100 in the superbowl pool Don's family always does. And they weren't too happy because I always complain about participating cuz I hate throwing money away on a
chance to win. So I guess I better shut up, since I've won 3 times now. Thank goodness the scored stayed 3 to 7 until half time.. which honestly I never thought would happen.
Well, on the adoption front things are still moving like frozen molasses!!! Maybe it is because of all the snow??? I just got the updated numbers for February and China has only made referrals through 12/27/05. And my agency has retracted there prediction of a referral for us between april & october of this year (08). They are saying we might not see our referral until 2009 now. Oh, that just is rotten. I was so hopeful that it would happen in 2008. Well enough about that subject right now. I can hardly bare to talk about it. We are looking at some other options to start our family. We had signed up for foster parenting licensing classes in February, but then they cancelled them because of lack of enrollment. So now we are signed up for March. Not sure if we will pursue that for sure, but we are keeping our options open.
