Halloween DAY


Halloween day was a big day for us. 

The past 7 Mondays have been intensely busy for us.  We would get up early and drive to Tucson for our 3 hour class and try to do as much as we could in the few hours we had in the city.  Some standard stops were Bookman’s, In & Out and of course Trader Joe’s.

On halloween, which just so happened to fall on a Monday, we slept in and didn’t even one mile.  We got up later than usual, had a huge breakfast, went for a walk then cleaned the house a bit.  Then we waited for that Halloween hour I may never forget…1pm.

duuun! 
Our amazing Case Worker arrived 3 minutes early all smiles and compliments.  She loved our home, our garden (which was in full bloom for the occasion), the river and the neighbor’s nameless cat came over for a visit.  We had our last interview together, then his final interview and then she looked around our home.  She told us that her case load was incredibly heavy but that we would be approved, just later in November. 

Even though there was no dressing up or trick-r- treating we sure felt like we got a pretty sweet deal – we are pretty much done with that part of the adoption. 

Now for the MATCH LETTER…… Dun
