busy busy

well, today we have been in pgn (this go round) for 2 weeks. approximately 6 weeks to go until we are out . . . . . . . hopefully . . . . . . if all goes well.

courtney and stella are OUT of pgn. CONGRATULATIONS to them :) i know courtney and rich are SO ready to get their girl, so i am praying for a SUPER FAST pink!!!

also, Telissa and Mariela, as well as Jennifer and Shiloh are in pgn :) FINALLY!!! congrats to them!!! hopefully we can all meet in the mala :)

that's all i've got on the adoption front.


last saturday we had our second annual theworkshop 308 holiday party. it was lovely. we hosted a dinner party at our home for a small group of friends. we had such a good time :)


this is the dining room right before everyone arrived.








this was taken during the cocktail hour before dinner.











and during dinner. there's nothing like a yummy dinner, lots of wine and good company to warm your soul.
this was a fabulous night for us. last year was our first 308 holiday party and there were only 4 of us present. this year there were 10 of us. it even snowed : just for us. we have amazing friends that wholly support us and we are thankful for each and every one. after dinner we treated everyone to desert and coffee at the amazing new coffee shop theworkshop 308 just finished. it's called The Coffee Ethic. the guys designed and built all their fixtures and they are nothing short of spactacular. plus, the coffee is amazing!
just thought i'd share. it's been a good year. although having stella home would have made that much better.

Thanks for the congrats! I looks like you had a beautiful dinner party! I love the table and all the candles. It looks so warm and inviting. I always get the urge to throw a cute dinner part around this time of the year, but somehow I always seem to get caught up in the bustle of the season and don't make time for it. Oh well, maybe next year.

And it would be really cool if we did get the chance to all meet up in Guatemala while picking up our girls!
