We have finished the 40 plus documents that we needed for our first trip. It was one hard week completing them but thanks to all who helped. We have now started packing for our first trip. We will be leaving Thursday night to go to Memphis. On Friday we will fly to Atlanta and then Moscow. The whole family is very excited and nervous about the journey ahead of us. Please continue to pray for us as we prepare to meet the child that God has chosen for us.
In 2009 my family adopted a child from Russia. All of our friends wanted to know how a single income family was able to save for a debt-free adoption. We are now adopting twin girls from Uganda. This blog is how God has grown our family.

Holly and Chad - SO excited for you guys and honored to have you as friends. Getting to watch (and hopefully someday participate) in adoptions has been such a reminder to Jana and I of the action God took towards us through Jesus.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the blog idea. Thanks for letting us keep tabs on you here.
Chad & Holly: Your trip and adventure brings back such wonderful memories. We will be praying for a healthy and successful trip.
