Updates on the Johnson’s

Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007

OK.. I realize that I have been remiss in keeping this blog up-to-date, and I sincerely apologize… Things have just been CRAZY!…

So here is the update.

First of all, I am moving.. Not houses, but my office. For the last 6 years I have had an office about 1/4 mile from my house. It has been GREAT! The longest part of my commute was to the Coffee Bean in the morning to get coffee. That is all coming to an end. It has been decided that I should be in the Garden Grove office of the company that I work for, Southland Industries. I don’t mind though. The commute is not that bad, no freeways anyway, and my boss was generous enough to ensure that I was moved into an office, with a door, and not a cubical. So. I have spent the last couple of weeks packing up 6 years of my life… It is amazing how much you collect, even in your office.

Our Backyard.. well, I plan on a separate post for all of the backyard info, and also plan some pictures.. But the two year saga that has been our backyard remodel is coming to an end. We FINALLY got most of the sod laid down a couple of weeks ago.. I say most, since I under estimated how big the backyard was and we were about 100 sq feet short on the sod. I decided to let what I laid take before I got the rest, in case I also needed to order some replacement for that the stuff. Good news, it all took wonderfully.. It looks so great back there…

Back in September, I got to finally get back to South Dakota and see my buddy back there, and his four kids.. It has been so long since I have gotten to see them.. it was great fun. Here is a pic of the crew :

Otherwise, things have been about the status quo.

If you’re reading this and I haven’t heard from you in awhile — email or call me…

Johnson Adoption Update…

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

We are still waiting…

That is pretty much it. CCAA has just posted completion of dossier’s from 11/30/2005 (we are 06/27/06) .. so… We still have some time to wait.

Our 171-H needs to be updated, and for that we need another home study, so we are ramping up to get that stuff done.

At this point, I estimate referral for us sometime in September of next year with travel in December or January.
