The Rest of September

Earlier this year I made a goal to have all of my Christmas projects and shopping done by the end of September. For the last several years I have been working on projects right up until Christmas Eve and I haven't been able to enjoy the Holiday season as much I would have liked so this year I decided things will be different. October starts tomorrow and unfortunately I still have one really big project left, but I am so close.  So this month I have been busy working on Christmas projects.

Another project our family has been working on this month is completing the paperwork necessary to adopt another baby.  I finished our profile a couple of weeks ago, which was the final piece needed.  Everything has been turned in and we are now officially back in the pool waiting for a sweet little spirit to join our family. Olivia can't wait to be a big sister. 

The rest of September has been spent watching BYU lose three football games (basketball starts in a month thank heavens), playing in the park before it gets dark (boo that it is getting dark earlier and is dark when I wake up in the morning), eating tomatoes from our garden (the only thing that actually survived this year), and enjoying every minute with this beautiful little girl...
