School's Out

It's been awhile since our last post. We've been fighting colds and getting through the end-of-the-school-year ongoings. Liam's had a difficult spring with his asthma! On a brighter note, school is out and the boys and I are gearing up for our summer together. I love working the school schedule!!! In celebration of summer, we took a long weekend and rented a Forest Service cabin up Rock Creek (The Hogback Homestead). It was a beautiful weekend to enjoy the sunshine and mountain air. The boys did a lot of hiking, whittling, cooking in the campfire and playing in the creek. I recuperated from my cold (basking in the sunshine with my book!).

Before leaving on our mini-vacation, I called the co-director of our adoption agency. I was interested in finding where we are on the waiting timeline (expecting 30's-40's). We were thrilled to discover that for an infant to 1-yr-old we are 7th! For a 1-yr-old to 24-month-old we are 2nd or 3rd! We are still trying to digest this fantastic information, as well as the notion that it is entirely plausible that we will have our little girl by Christmas-time.

That sounds like a nice little get-away. What does it run to rent out that cabin?
