Getting Closer

Hi Folks,

It is starting to get busy for the Holidays and we are starting to get excited about the holidays and our referral!

We are finally starting to feel like we are getting close.

The last batch of referrals covered December 1-8, 2005. At last, referrals are being made for waiting families in December 2005.

We still have a few more months, but we are very hopeful that we will receive our referral in early January.

Chinese New Year is in Early February this year, so I'm not sure how that might effect our travel dates. Most of China closes for 1 week during this holiday. It sure would be fun to be there for part of the holiday!

We have continued training with Phoebe. She is now in an intermediate training class. We had lots of fun taking her to a doggie Halloween party at Pet Smart. She made some interesting friends there.





The weather has been unusually warm for Fall, but has finally cooled off to more seasonal temps. We have had some fun times playing in the leaves and walking in the woods.

Even the Kitty got in on some of the activity with a much needed bath. As you can imagine, she wasn't too happy about it, but boy, does she make a perfect Halloween cat or what?

That is really all of the update we have for the past few weeks. We wish everyone a well and Happy Thanksgiving!
