Oh, Boy (Girl)!!!

We just heard this afternoon that we will be traveling to get the girls on Feb. 25th! We are so excited! Everyone said that the wait between trips is the hardest, and we found that to be true also. However, it all seems worth it. Now we need to get visas, tickets, and other packing for our trip. We will be gone just over 3 weeks, 10 days between court and gotcha day (March 14). It looks like our trip will overlap some of our new internet adoption friends, so that will be nice. We will arrive in Moscow on the 26th, see the Drs. on the 27th, and then on to Krasnoyarsk. Monday the 2nd we will visit the girls again, court will be on the 3rd, and then we wait again. We plan to do some shopping for essentials for the girls during that time, and who knows what else. It will probably depend on the weather. Please pray for visas and ticket process, safe travel, health for MaryEllen and me, and for the court and other details of the trip.

The grandparents all have the DVD of the girls, and loved watching them interact with us. That seems like a good way to relate the two generations. I will try to update again when my feet come back down to the earth.
