All our bags are packed we're ready to go......


It's really happening!! Tomorrow morning (Monday) we are headed to the airport to fly to go meet our daughter!! We have been overwhelmed by people's generosity and compassion. We are truly humbled. Mike and I appreciate your prayers for the following things:
1. Please pray for Noah. He will be staying with Grandparents and having a wonderful time but we will miss him greatly.
2. Please pray that the Lord's will be done and we be able to see Laurel. If not, please pray we will be open to another child he has in mind
3. Safety on the planes/trains/automobiles
4. A whole host of other things that I can't even think of right now.


You all will be greatly missed. We have such a HUGE community of friends and family and church family and are greatful beyond belief. So........... (cue the music) "I'm leaving, on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again......." Except we DO know our return date ;)

You all are in my prayers. While on vacation I was sitting on the deck in the mountains yesterday morning early enjoying the view and remembered you in my prayers. God speed!
