Before & After Pictures of our New Home!

Busy Busy! Yesterday was "Media Day" with the USDA. What a nice event! There were 23 people total including friends, family and Chase's therapists. The representatives from the USDA spoke first about our family (it was so sweet!) and gave us a giant key and big hanging basket welcoming us home. We were then given a chance to share our appreciation (I made Dave talk while I held a sick Chase, of ALL days for him to be sick) followed by a front lawn photo shoot :o). John, from the Batavia USDA office brought a ton of cookies and drinks provided by his wife! YUMMY! We were interviewed by the Clarence Bee, now I have to find out when the Bee comes out. lol I'd hate to miss it!

Since we've spent the last 3 weeks doing nothing but fixing up the house, we figured it's time to share some pictures!

DRUM ROLL, PLEASE!




Disco Balls!!!












Our favorite new spot!


Chase in a bag! (A gift from the USDA):


Our other big news is that Chase's pediatrician referred him to Make-A-Wish. They will be coming Thursday night, with all the therapists, to help plan a therapy room for him! He needs a place to play where he can throw himself around without us worrying about him hitting his head on a table edge! We're SO excited!!!

HAPPY SUMMER EVERYONE!!!
