This is what Chris came home to on Wednesday:
I decorated our bedroom door in a USA theme...with a Welcome Home sign! So good to have him back on US soil...
And thought I would also post a pic of how hairy he was when he got home...he had shaved only once during the trip to Uganda, so this was only about a week's worth of growth. It was the hairiest I had ever seen him though!!
Friday, Chris and I left town around 11:00 to pick Aspen up from cross country camp in Dallas. Got her around 3:oo, stopped at a running store, had BBQ on the way home, and then gave Aspen her birthday gifts from us when we got home...new bedroom furniture! It was time to update her room because her old furniture was kind of "young" and she'd had it since she was a little girl. We bought her some nice black furniture from Target...a desk, a dresser, a shelf unit, and a bedside table. Also a few odds and ends like new frames, a lamp, some cork boards. Her new room looks very cute and grown up...and kudos to Chris for putting it all together! Saturday, we had Aspen's birthday dinner at Red Lobster and came home to an adorable pink/green chocolate cake...
That cute tree is a vinyl sticker that we found at Target, it is so cute!
Her new bedding with her new furry white rug, bedside table, and lamp.
And the sweet polka dot curtains...it all looks so cute in the black/white with the lime green walls.
:: Be sure to check this link periodically if you're interested in hearing Chris' stories about Uganda...he will have so many of them, and from what I have seen of the photos so far, they are amazing. And we've only touched the surface so far...
