Visa's are in!!

Boy I'm glad our passports are back in our hands. They are officially China ready!! Carol at Dependable Courier Service is the bomb!!

We can't wait to have our baby home!

The last two weeks have really flown by. I just hope the next two weeks goes just as fast. The boys will be in camp all of next week so I'm gonna get this house in tip top shape. After cleaning I will pull out the luggage and start to figure out how to pack and stay under 44 lbs. I know for certain if I leave all of my lotions, make-up and hair products home I will be under weight for certain!! We will post again when we receive travel approval!

We got the CALL, READ DISCRIPTION!!!

The last few days

Here are a few pics of the last few days. It has been a whirlwind and we still have lots to do. We have to get a lot of papers notarized tomorrow and start working on our Visa's to China. Thanks goodness we have connected with some of our travel buddies and we are able to share and bounce ideas off one another. You guys are the greatest.


Allie's Care package. We will send this off tomorrow.

Signing our acceptance letter

The stork "delivering our baby"

This is where Miss Allie is currently staying. It's called the Guixi Social Welfare Institue and is located in the Jiangxi Province of China. It's almost certain that we will fly into Hong Kong. We should be in Hong Kong a few days so that we will get use to the time change and to do some touring. Then we should travel close to where Allie is staying and receive her in a day or two after arriving. It looks as if we should be traveling at the end of July or first part of August. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as the four of us prepare to travel.
