Feeling HOT HOT HOT??

We're not!!! Well... we won't this summer.
Sean and I just invested in an expensive large hole for our backyard.
It should be installed in time for the very hot weather!!

After talking about a semi in-ground pool for a long time, we actually decided on a full in-ground (pool salesmen are just like car salesmen!).

CANADA day!?!? Pool Party?!?! Maybe!!!!!

We had to do something to entertain ourselves during this LOOOONNNGGG wait!!!

Now for permits, a fence, sod, landscaping, ... Ok ... what did I just get myself into... SEAN - it's all your fault!!! :)

I CAN'T WAIT!!! (Shhh...don't tell him I said that!)

I'm Back!!

I've actually been home for a week, but I think that I am still getting over jet-lag. I seem to wake up been 3 and 4 am everyday (9 and 10am in Switzerland) which is when I used to get up.
My vacation, of course, was amazing. Sunny blue skies for 2 weeks!! And it was great to see family again that I had not seen in some time. I'll try to post a few pictures when I get a chance.
But now it's back to reality... the depressing truth about our wait for Emily.
And the UPDATE is............for the whole month of March (2007) they worked through 2... yes I said 2 days of files, bringing us from Oct 24th 2005 to Oct 26th 2005. And from what I have been reading, the rest of October and November were VERY LARGE as far as applications... translation...you got it, more waiting...

On a lighter note, I am trying to grow a holunder bush that I brought from Switzerland. Never heard of this?? Exactly! Why can't we get that here?? I'm keeping my fingers crossed... this is my baby for now!!!!
