We received our appointment date at the US Embassy in Ethiopia today! Our appointment is September 15 so we’ll be booking our travel soon. We’re so excited and a bit anxious to meet our boys. Our tentative plan is to travel the prior week so we can go to the orphanage before meeting the boys. Then we’ll just “hang out” with them for a few days to get to know them, play some games, etc. On the 14th we should meet with our lawyer to complete all the forms for the embassy. On the 15th we have our meeting at the embassy. On the 16th we’ll be issued travel documents for the boys and participate in a function at the adoption agency’s facility. Then we’ll come home on the 17th with children numbers 3 and 4. Once home, we can post pictures and names of the boys, but not until then.
YEAH!!! So glad you finally heard so you can plan to GO GET THOSE BOYS!!!!!
See you Saturday!
Love,
Jeff & Chris

And, hey, I like your little “visitors by country” tally. Now I can know how many times I visit…since I’m guessing I’m the only one from Thailand?? 😀

Congratulations! You know that we are rejoicing with you and will continue praying for everything to go smoothly. I know the boys can’t wait to meet you!
Yeah, that is great. You two are in my prayers, and so are your lucky boys. If you need ANYTHING please let me know. I had such a wonderful time at your house, thank you so for all your hospitality. Love you. Sandi
