Proof and Shower

Mom and Dad came to visit this weekend to help with my "to do" list.  Mom sorted hand-me-down clothes, that friends have given me, into piles based on size then type. Dad fixed my back gate latch, added latches to my attic and basement doors and helped me add shelves to my cubby unit.  The cubby unit project was frustrating and took longer than we wanted but we got the holes drilled, shelves in and canvas totes put back in place.  WHEW!  We did take a few breaks to go out to dinner and my Mom just HAD to go see the new casino and play a little. I must say the new River City casino is very nice, LOVED the red glass chandaliers!!! 

My gal friends has a shower for me today.....they are WONDERFUL! We all got a chance to catch up, update them on the adoption status, eat and open presents.  A group bought me my bed!!! I was sooooo excited!  My fried Molly helped me unload it at my house and I immediately put it together.  I'm very proud of myself that I got it together all by myself and the bedding put on. Now the room looks like it's finally coming together. The designer in me is a little "off balance" because I have three different wood finishes going on in the room, but when you have to use some stuff you already have, you do what you have to do. I keep going back into the room and just looking around at how it's changed and can't wait to see Christian in it soon.  I'm still waiting to hear the court date and hope they're still pushing for the end of October.
Thanks to all my gals for the wonderful shower :)
