I am so glad Halloween is over with. Since Shane and Jacob are camping, I just put a bowl of candy at the front door, turned off the lights and spent the evening yelling at the dogs to quit barking at every noise they heard. Riley likes to "tell" me when she hears something and it is quite annoying. She usually won't stop barking until I get up and see what is so exciting for her. Border collie's are so so smart and are very vigilant about keeping their owners informed of the happenings around them. If only she knew. I listed her on the BC Rescue and Aussie websites as up for adoption. This was not an easy decision as we love her very much but I believe it is the best decision for our family. Since she has been listed for over 2 weeks, I was losing hope. But, today I got an e-mail from a retired couple that are interested in her. It sounds like the perfect home, especially since they are looking for a "project" dog. They are coming to meet her tomorrow. Please pray that if this is the right home for her, that it will work out.

Although I am enjoying my time alone, I do miss my guys. They are having lots of fun doing outside stuff...things I don't enjoy unless the weather is perfect. I have been a slob this weekend and have promised myself that I will clean house tomorrow morning. Today, I spent the day with my cousin Elan and her baby, Daniel. He said my name...it was so awesome. It sounded something like Awwaww but we knew he was trying to say Laura. He is precious and loves to gab. We went through her baby blothes and I brought Jacob's home with me just in case the baby we bring home is a boy (even it the baby is a girl she will at least have something to wear).

Lastly, I can't tell too many details as to some things that are happening in our lives. I would just like for you all to pray that God would grant the desires of our heart. We must trust in God's timing but it is ok to pray for specific things and although I can not share what that specific thing is, please pray with and for us. There is so much power in prayer and that is all we can rely on at this time.
