We're Leavin' on a Jet Plane!

We have great news! We are leaving on Wednesday May 3rd! We are so excited and can hardly wait to see Sasha and Stella. We are going to call them Monday to tell them the good news. It will be great to hear their voices.
All that waiting and now it's hurry, hurry, hurry! We fly out on Wednesday afternoon but will not get in until some time Friday. We then overnight in Almaty and on to Karaganda, where our apartment will be. We hear it is a nice apartment and in the same building as our coordinator. We will see the kids Saturday and they should be staying with us from then on. Just add kids...INSTANT FAMILY! It doesn't feel real yet but it will soon enough. Praise God!

Still Waiting on a Good Thing.

We are still waiting for a travel date. We have been given a few travel dates but have yet to receive a confirmation. We are not discouraged though! We know we are going soon. We are praying and believing that the Embassy will receive our number so we can process our visa on Monday. Sasha will turn 12 on Saturday and we would love to be there but we will be there soon after. They are both doing well and are looking forward to coming back to the U.S. Stella told us Friday she is fine and she knows we are coming and not to worry about her. So cute! We are expecting great news this week so we will be posting as soon as we know a date. Thank you for your prayers! We love you all!
