Our Blind Date, MLK Weekend

Wahoooo!
I have been talking to Dee for the past year on the phone and we had no idea what the other looked like! Dee is LID December 9th, 2005 and is also adopting through CCAI. She went to school near where Alan and I live, and she sent me an email in November 2005 to say, 'hey, I used to live there'. We really hit it off and enjoy each other. Her friendship has been a blessing from the Lord and has helped with the long wait. We've been talking about 'meeting in person' for many months, but it was difficult to arrange....Dee and her husband Chris live about 7 hours away. MLK weekend seemed like a good weekend for all of us to 'hook up'. So, off Alan and I went and stayed with them over the weekend!

Their Church is beautiful!

This is where we landed Saturday...

This place had GREAT Chili - and 4 good looking customers:o). We drove about 45 minutes from Dee's place Sunday to see Alan's cousin and their new grandbaby!
We could not have had a better weekend...Dee and Chris were awesome hosts and chefs! We had a faboulous time and it was an awesome blind date:o)

I'm so happy that you were able to meet someone that lives close by. I wish I could do that but it looks like we are the only ones in Louisiana. And she has a great name too.
