We have our airline tickets!!! We are going to leave Denver on August 4th t noon. We will return to Denver on August 18th, most likely 5:22 pm. We are waiting to see which return flights come through. It is really really full on all the flights so we are waiting to see how it turns out. The travel agent, Susan Parr, is working on it so we don't have to. :)
Today Jake and Jeff and my parents helped us move a ton of stuff over to the house from storage. We brought over toy shelves, craft and office cabinets, desk, chairs, beds for the boys, etc..... It was great to have such good help.
In the afternoon my parents helped us with some of the work. We cleaned up the cabinets (these are circa 1880-1900 cabinets out of First Methodist's Hibbard Hall when it was remodeled in the 50's). My mom sanded down the maple counter tops. Lots got done.
Monday the lights and outlets will be in!! Dave continues to work on the beautiful trim work and I will continue to paint. The tile is done and it is really really really nice. Some of the carpet is even in. It is really coming together.
There is so much to do and only two weeks to do it in. All in good time. I wish I could have a magic wand to finish it all and get over there to get our boys all at once. But, it doesn't work like that. Soon enough we will have them in our arms for good.
Have a great day!
