Preparations

The last few weeks have been busy as we prepare for Sam's arrival.  Here's what we've been up to:

• Garage cleaned up and organized
• Hallway painted (that's the last of what needed to be painted in the house)
• Our stuff is out of Sam's room - it's totally his room now
• Kristi found a used wooden high chair sitting on a sidewalk downtown that someone was trying to give away.  She took it, stripped it down, sanded and painted it.  It looks great.  It's sitting in our dining room now.
• IKEA trip produced some more things for Sam's room including a table and chairs and toy storage bins.
• Studying Korean phrases to get us by in Korea, like 불고기 주세요!  - Please give me Korean BBQ!

There's still lots more to do, but it's fun to finally get to this point where we are preparing in earnest!

No news from Holt since the last post I made.  But at this point that is good - that means there were no problems with the Visa physical.  We likely won't hear any more news from Holt until the travel call comes which we've been told could be as early as the first week of September!
