I can’t believe it! We finally got the email that we have the signature from the MOJ. I am so excited! Now, it is sent over to the courts, assigned a judge and then a court date. So, we just wait for the court date and I am hoping that we will get that pretty quickly. I was so relieved this morning when I got the email about the signature, as I had really started to worry that maybe something was wrong. Shelley had tried to assure me that everything was ok, but I just couldn’t stop that little nagging feeling that something could go wrong  — like my papers could have been lost or maybe there was a reason we couldn’t get the signature — what reason I don’t know, but I imagined that there could be one. Thank goodness I can relax a little now before I start worrying about the court date. 

Here are a few autumn pictures I have taken this past week.

Another person donated to our adoption to help bring Bella and Allysen home  — or maybe it was more than one person. I want to thank whoever you are so much. We appreciate this act of kindness more than you know. Thank you for being a part of our adoption.

We also had our annual pumpkin carving on Sunday and the kids had a great time. They had friends over and ate lots of food, carved pumpkins and ran around goofing off. I just watched them have fun and took pictures — the thing I like to do best. Here are a few pictures.
