After - Packing Day

Before - Packing day

Packing Insanity and Organization

This weekend's goal - get us all organized and packed up. Addie's room looks like an explosion of travel stuff. Need to get it all organized and zipped up.

Travel confirmed

We've got our travel confirmed. We get to leave on the 17th and return on the 2nd. Hope all my little ones (and big one) are up for the long flights and airport visits! Not to mention the time change between US and China.

Gotcha day is scheduled for the 21st!

Travel Approval

Received notice today that our Travel Approval is enroute to our adoption agency. Hope to have a travel date next week. Yippee!!!

Dr. Seuss

"Somehow you'll escape all that waiting and staying. You'll find bright places where Boom Bands are playing. With banner flip-flapping, once more you'll ride high! Ready for anything under the sky." Dr. Seuss

Month of April

Went the whole month of April waiting on paperwork - still circulating in China. Meanwhile, we've been working on yard maintenance. Concreting the blocks in the front and new bushes in the back. Mulch distributed everywhere and weeds being pulled. Really just keeping ourselves busy while we wait.

Victoria and Carter have been busy with school. After school activities got a small break in April, but are picking back up again in May. Big events for Victoria this month were Civil War day at school, 5th grade music concert, and Voices of Knights concert at Barnes and Noble. Mom and dad went to open house at Kingsley Jr High to learn all about 6th grade.
