Last night we stayed up late watching movies, with special late-night movie-watching treats (popcorn, cheesies, chips, etc). We started at about 7:00 pm and watched two Pooh Bear movies the kids picked, then one called Far From Home - a Canadian movie about a boy, his father, and their newly adopted dog whose boat capsizes off the BC coast in some rough seas. The father is rescued but the boy and his dog are washed up on shore and have to survive several weeks before being found. That took us to 10:00 pm and when both kids said they didn't want to go to bed yet we watched one more short kids' movie. At 10:30 we all went to bed and even Mustang fell asleep in about five minutes. Maybe in a few years they'll make it to midnight!
As noted yesterday, it was Button’s Family Day. Some of you faithful readers may remember that way back last year, in Ethiopia, and after our return to Canada, I promised to add pictures to my Ethiopia adoption travel blog posts eventually. I am happy to report that "eventually" has arrived. It only took a year. How about that.
To go back over my travel blog posts and see the beautiful pictures, all you need to do is to follow the links below. (Each post also has a link to the next post, in sequence, so you can just go from one to the next if you wish, rather than returning to this page. But if you want to jump to a particular post, they’re all here.)
