We went up to Portland to spend the afternoon with Emma. It has been too long! We picked her up at her weekend coffee job.We first stopped at a pumpkin patch that doesn't really grow pumpkins, they just pretend too; they scatter them about their lot. But, it wasn't open.
We then went shopping for stuff.
Meggie found her homecoming dress. Eva got more material for her bags. Simon has a new lampshade for the lamp that will now go on his desk so his eyesight doesn't flounder.
We then went to eat at a delicious Chinese restaurant. We had been there with our friends who adopted their daughter at the same time we adopted Lydia. Ironically, they are also waiting for their child from China. Although, whereas, we can expect to wait 61-120 days(we are at 60 days today) before we get our Letter of Acceptance they are on the healthy, as young as possible track and, therefore they can expect to wait about 1090 days for their Letter of Acceptance.
We had a lovely dinner and evening which culminated with a walk along the river and through downtown back to Emma's apartment. It was great seeing Emma!
