Court Results

Well...we did not pass court yesterday. Nicky our consultant called in the morning to let us know that the paperwork from the MOWA was not ready in time. So that means our next court date is June 16 with a tentative embassy date of July 22.

Court Date!

We have a court date of May 25th. Keep us in your prayers as we wait to hear back from the Ethiopian courts if we will officially be Jack's parents. I will post as soon as I hear something. If all goes well we hope to bring Jack home in July.

In the meantime we have registered at Babies R Us and Target and have been busy getting all of our stuff together for the house and to travel.

Back From Destin

We just got back from a family trip to Destin. We had a great time and enjoyed the weather and spending time with my family. My favorite part of the trip was the Dolphin Cruise. It is the second time we have done the cruise and it was just as fun as the first time.

This is my sweet nephew Charlie!


And his little brother Osby.





Like father, like son. Independent of each other my brother and his son decided to show us their grill stuffed with oreo cookies. What a pair!




We also came back the day before the rain started. It started Saturday and seemed like it never stopped. Now we have widespread flooding and many people have died. It is a disaster here. Thankfully we were not affected except for a 12 hour power outage on Sunday when an F1 tornado hit our area. Again...we were lucky.
