Finishing touches....

We loved putting some personal finishing touches in Matthew's room tonight. It just makes things feel so real, and we have loved every second of working on Matthew's room! We sure so hope he likes his airplanes, as we are so ready to "fly around the world" to come bring him HOME WITH US!!!
