Home At Last

P.S. I snagged this from The Lettered Cottage. Another home decor blog Family who is adopting.

Decor Love

I like to decorate. I just do.

I like to read about decorating homes, design ideas, color schemes. I love to watch "Secrets from A Stylist" and think about how me and the host Emily would be friends. I mean, we both think brass was never really out of style and it is finding it's way back into being super cool.

But not shiny brass.....antiqued brass.

I've also found hypothetical friends on the Internet through blogs that talk about decorating. I enjoy reading them and "researching."

I also like blogs that talk about adoption.

When I found this blog, I couldn't read enough because it talks about decorating and adoption. Yes! My two passions collide! A decorating adoptive mama after my own heart.

I especially love reading about these twiblings too. Check it.



And below, another inspiring story about twiblings:

August Numbers!

I saw this adoption ad and it made me smile. I think there might be a lot of truth in that little picture.

I'm excited to share our August wait list numbers with you all. We finally have our home study addendum approved with our new 'boy' number of 37! We are so thrilled to finally officially be on that boy list!

More excitement comes in the form of our siblings list number of 20. Could it possibly be that we will finally be in the 'teens' next month!?!? (ok, I officially thought we were unofficially number 19 already but that's ok) Are you confused yet?



And lastly, our 'girl' number of 54. We are happy to see some movement in that number this month as well!



Our little family has been pretty busy this summer. Finally enjoying some overdue Oregon sunshine. With that sunshine has come the opportunity for me to do wedding and family pictures. Thank you so much for those who have invited me to snap your photos! You are helping finance this adoption. I can't express my gratitude enough! I'm hoping to schedule another photography mini session for early fall and am gathering names of those who might be interested in participating. Email me if you are able to join in. I'm also considering a different blog format to share my thoughts, our adoption journey, and YOUR photos. Any suggestions on a better blogging format?
