Leave it to the Kennedy's to get stuck in there for an hour and a half! We were greeted by the Security guard who was very friendly. He had several grandkids so he was right at home entertaining our three. Easton was memorized by his gun and his stick "that he hits the bad people with." He told us of a great catalog that everything is under twenty dollars. In it, you can find a wonderful porcelain Eagle, wings spread wide, feeding its young, with fiber optic lighting to give it a little extra pizzazz. If you have any interest in ordering one for some one on your list, I did manage to find it online. (sarcasm, unless of course fiber optic eagles are your thing)
The kids were great, thanks to the help of the security guard and a few suckers. They got a Chocolate Mess for their good behavior. We now have to wait for CIS to mail back a form, and that and our home study documents should complete our dossier! Then, we wait for a referral which might take a while...
In other news, the house is now decorated for Christmas. Here are some shots of the kids decorating. We will post some pictures of the rest of the house later this week.
Easton's ornament this year is his favorite shoe, the Chuck Taylor.
Catherine is actually telling "Santa" what she wants for Christmas. Santa then responded, "That is too many. I can't get that many."
This has nothing to do with Christmas, but a mac n cheese on the nose is always funny.

Yes, a mac & cheese on the nose IS always funny. Thanks, I needed a laugh this morning. Ummm...love the girl's overalls...they're even cuter on. Also, love that Catherine is sitting on Easton's lap. too cute. By the way, we could have watched your kids, but whatever.
Cute kids! I love the Chuck Taylor ornament!
Hoping you get your I-171H super fast! It took as about 3 weeks to get ours - hopefully, Arkansas is at about the same pace (or faster!) as Oklahoma!
LOVE the overalls. Karen told me about Catherine visiting Santa, but she didn't say the part about "that's too many"! That's hilarious!!! See you soon!
Great, I guess I'll have to take ya'll's fiber optic eagle back...
You guys are moving through the paperwork process pretty quickly. We have friends who adopted from Russia and it seems like their paperwork process took a long time.
Love the "Santa" - what an obliging brother! Are we bad parents because we aren't taking Caedmon to see Santa for his first Christmas? I don't think I want to stand in that line until I HAVE to.
Leave it to me to click on the Eagle link...just to notice that they are SOLD OUT! Just cracked me up so I had to tell you! Congrats on the adoption going smoothly too!
