Plans in the making!

Shane and I are finally able to start planning our summer vacation! We are pretty excited about it. On August 1 we will start the 3-4 day drive to Calgary, Alberta. There we will get Will's citizenship (really the whole point of the trip) and then spend a couple days touring the city. We plan to visit the Calgary Zoo which we are very excited about. Since William likes to stop and talk to EVERY dog or bird we see when we go on walks here I know he will LOVE seeing all the different animals at the zoo. He definitely got his love for animals from my side of the family :-)

After we spend 3 days or so in Calgary we will drive to Edmonton, Alberta. That should only be a 3-4 hour drive. We will spend a couple days there at the West Edmonton Mall. They have a mini theme park, an ice rink, and a water park so we know William will enjoy visiting there.Then we will begin the 3-4 day drive back home.

That's about all that we have planned so far. It will be a lot of driving but we plan to stop and let William see anything that looks interesting. We will just take our time and enjoy being together. It should be fun. Please do be praying about that trip as Shane will most likely be doing all the driving and he has never really driven that far or in the city before. Also please pray that William's paperwork for the US citizenship goes smoothly.

Tonight is a ladies' meeting. I have been studying Romans 1 for the past couple weeks and I am really excited to share with the ladies what I have learned. It is not the easiest chapter to understand so I really need God's help to teach it.

I am 33 weeks and 2 days pregnant now. Only 6 weeks and 5 days left! That's only 47 days!!!!!! I am pretty much prepared for the baby now. I still have a couple things left on my spring cleaning list but other than that I am ready. We bought a second hand bassinet for only $10! It is in like new condition so I am very excited about it. Baby will be in our room for at least the first few months so having a bassinet is so much nicer than a play pen. The bassinet takes up less space. This week we finally decided who we wanted to ask to watch William while I am in the hospital. We asked Shane's sister and she said that would be fine. So that is nice to have that taken care of. I have baby's clothes washed and folded and the blanket I made for him/her is sitting in the bassinet. Now all we need is baby!

Well, have a great weekend everyone!!
