Flights are booked!!!!!

We received travel dates from our agency today! We will be leaving on December 19th and arriving home Christmas morning.......what an awesome Christmas this will be! Originally, we thought we would be arriving home on the 26th and we weren't thrilled that some of us would be in Ethiopia and some of us would be here on Christmas day. We are so glad that we will get to spend that day with all 4 of our daughters.

There is lots to do between now and the 19th! We have started to purchase Ava's clothes, diapers, toys, etc. We will be taking donations for the orphanage over in large plastic containers and those are filling up quickly.

There will be about 5 or 6 other families from our agency traveling on those same dates and we look forward to meeting all of them. We have all emailed and chatted online for the past year and a half and it will be exciting to meet them in person.

We have so much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving! The most exciting part of the adoption journey is just around the corner and we can't wait to hold our daughter in 33 more days!
