WE HAVE LOA!!!!

We got the phone call today from our adoption agency!! The one we have been waiting for!! We have LOA!!!

____

I can't tell you how much this has brightened our day!! We had spent most of our day on the telephone with our insurance company, setting up appointments for estimates on my husband's truck and our camper, and being interviewed by our local newspaper! YES!! We'll be featured in our newspaper tomorrow! Our neighborhood was apparently one of the hardest hit. A reporter came to our door and said she saw the tree that had fallen and damaged our vehicle and our camper, and asked if she could interview us!

And, then there was the awful job of cleaning out all of the food that had thawed out in our freezer, cleaning out the refrigerator, and just cleaning in general! The reporter told us that some people will be without power until Thursday (I can't even IMAGINE)!

So, when the phone rang and it was someone from our adoption agency, I just started jumping for joy!! Finally something to be HAPPY about!!

For all of you who voted on our daughter's middle name, thank you! We said that the voting would run until the time we received LOA. Since that day was TODAY......the winning name is Haley Renee.
