Leaving!!!!

We are really doing this!! We leave in about an hour for the airport in Charlotte. We fly to Munich then Frankfurt (where we meet up with the Lovin family) and then to Ethiopia!! AHHH!! So happy. We meet Solomon for the first time on Monday. Tuesday is our court date. After that we head to Awassa Solomon's birthplace to see where he is from. Then we take placement of him on October 25th. Matt leaves the 27th :( Then we wait to find out when we get our Embassy appointment so we can come home.

    hi, i found your blog from abby umlaufs. my husband and i live in WS, and we have been on the waitlist for almost 9 months for 2 kids from ethiopia. abby mentioned to me that one of you is staying in ethiopia between your court date and your embassy date. i would love to hear how that goes for yall because i'm planning to do that also. i know you'll be busy when you get home, but if you get a chance to connect, my email is laurenbdean@gmail.com.

    ps -- we are definitely getting one boy and had planned to name him solomon. congrats on your solomon!
