vacation time!

No news on the adoption front. Probably won't be for awhile since now we are to the waiting part. (hasn't it all been waiting?) There are two Bethany families traveling to pick up there children this week. My prayers are with them for successful travel and smooth transitions. 
We leave later this week for Orlando. Here we come Mickey! Kennedi says she wishes we were going to Chuck E Cheeses instead, and Tyler is afraid that it may not be as fun as Chuck E Cheeses. We keep trying to convince them it will be but they are still skeptical! Mckenzie kind of remembers being there when she was 3. 
By the time we get back our dossier should have arrived safely in Ethiopia! (hopefully)

I-171H has arrived!

Our approval from immigration has arrived! It was even a week and a half early. We should have everything out of our hands early next week and will then be waiting for our child! We officially started this adoption process 8 months ago, so it is hard to believe that we have made it to this point. I've heard the wait is the hardest part, but I am very relieved to have all the paper chasing behind us.  

Ethiopia here we come..........(soon!)
