Home study Tomorrow!

The last 2 days have been insane!!!

We drove home from Vegas after making a last minute trip down there to raise some money for our adoption by selling some puppies. Large dogs are sometimes hard to sell here in Utah, so they sell for very cheap. We picked up 10 puppies and headed down to Vegas where it is much more difficult to find large dogs for a reasonable price. 

So anyways back to the last 2 days, we drove home and got in at about 6:30 p.m. Kids had school the next morning and still had some homework to do. So after we gave them 30 minutes to get their wiggles out we sat down and did homework. We somehow managed to get it all done, eat dinner and be in bed before 9pm. Kevin and I were exhausted, so we were in bed before 10:30. Good thing too. Kevin got a call this morning that he was going to be starting on the night shift. We were not excited about that, but hey what can you do right? Then at about 10:30 this morning we got a call that we would be having our homestudy tomorrow..... Yes 1 whole day notice whoo hoo :) 

So, our home study is at 2 p.m. tomorrow. I am excited to have it done, but having one day notice especially when you just got home from a 5 day trip is not ideal..... Luckily the 3 musketeers came to the rescue... (My mom, my dad and me) We manage to clean the house, and when I say clean I mean spotless..... Stove cleaned, fridges cleaned out, dishes all done, swept, mopped, vacuumed, animal cages cleaned out, laundry done AND put away, toilets, tubs and sinks all cleaned..... The list goes on and on. On top of that we got both lawns mowed, the back yard completely picked up, the trailer cleaned off (garbage and stuff from moving hauled away) and the garage cleaned out.... We did all of this in just 8.5 hours. Only 3 people. Well hubby did do most of the garage before he had to go to work. I am so amazed at how awesome my parents are. No matter what the task is, they always find a way to help!!! I am beyond blessed!!

So, now I am gathering the last minute paperwork and things needed, finishing up the last 5 loads of laundry, and praising the good Lord for always helping me out! 

Tomorrow we will be one step closer to our son (This is our final visit). We are just $800.00 shy of our next big step! I am beyond excited at how well everything is coming together. Can we find 8 warriors who will donate $100.00 each? Or maybe 16 who will donate $50.00?? Surely we can find 80 who will donate just $10.00! Remember your money will be tripled! 

I will be having a raffle very soon..... I will let you get a jump start on entries if you share our blog on your blog or on FB you will get 1 entry for each. Please help us out.... We should not need much money toward the end. Now is when we need your help <3

Prizes for the raffle will be some awesome Scentsy products
Hair bows
Chocolate
and there is a rumor that there may be a PS3 included ;)
