Good evening y'all,
Well, well, I must apologize for our great neglect of the blog over the past week or so! It would appear that the appliances in our household have joined forces against us and gone on strike, lol! The computer most commonly used (by us girls that is), has become sluggish and irritable, (or perhaps irritating would be a better word for it, lol.) The camera has also not been working properly, and the last set of pix I took were somehow deleted off the card. Sorry! To top it all off, our blogging program (bloggerbot) seems to have "heaved it's last breath and died", so although I have switched our slow blogging program over to the new "google thingamajobber" under Daddy's instructions, even that is not working properly. Well anyways I'm sure you get the point;) LOL!

The Lord is good, and life goes on, quite pleasantly!
We enjoyed many jolly visits this week with friends and family, all of course anxious for a peek at the new little bundle of sweetness:)
Speaking of which, Katie and Bret are doing just wonderfully, and we are enjoying watching him change and grow through the days! What joy he brings to all around him!!!
We invited Katie over for tea today, and Beth set a beautiful table of goodies. Lace table runner, china, tea, lemonade, brownies, cookies... you know, "the works", and Beth pulled it off in grand style! Cooing over and playing with Bret topped it all off of course:)
Daddy and Mama continue to work on the adoption process with Latvia, and things are clipping right along. Exciting isn't it?!

But it is late, and I must away. So thanks for your patience! And may the Lord bless and keep y'all this week!

~Sincerely,
Rachel~

~Hmm, sorry I almost forgot, in the difficulty with the old blogging program, the comment moderation quit working and it wouldn't send me any of the comments! Soo, if you had something you wanted to comment on, then you should be able to get on now and send it again, (if you don't mind going to all the trouble) and I'll post it to the blog:) Thanks!!~
