Someone is watching over us...

As I have always believed, there is definitely somebody looking over us and helping us along our way. I got a call at work to inform me that I won a $2000 travel gift certificate to travel - ANYWHERE! I remember entering the contest back in March, but not really thinking much about it. How many of these "amazing" contests do we enter, never assuming that we'll ever hear anything. Well, I'm here to say, it can happen!
Especially if you have someone looking over you / looking out for you... You gotta believe!

I WON!!!!!!!

I entered a giveway for a $150 gift cetificate for: My Adoption Website, and.... I won!!! So we will be setting up a very nice site to be able to have our friends follow the end/beginning of our journey to Emily!!!

I can't wait...

ONE DAY, ONLY ONE DAY....

So... We missed this month by 1 day!!! China is now up to March 20th, we are March 21st. There is a certain amount of comfort in knowing that we are (likely) next - I say likely because I have heard of China "changing" your 'date' at the last minute. But there is still the nervous wonder of "when" next will be?
So, in the mean time, we are celebrating father's day with my family. Dad is getting a nice BBQ, and if the weather cooperated a little better we could go for a swim.

We are making some plans for the summer (which is either going to go by REALLY quickly or REEEEEAAAAALLLLLYYYYY slowly) I'm actually okay with either, but we'll have to see where my mind wonders to this summer (busy projects or viewing internet updates every 5 secs. > I'm hoping my mind is occupied with busy projects...)

Only 5 1/2 more days of work until my summer holidays officially begin. Summer was supposed to have started this morning, but if this is any indication of what the rest of summer will look like, I'm NOT happy!

So, now we wait for the next update. Let's hope it come quickly! Around July 12th would be nice...right on time for my BIRTHDAY! What a present that would be!
