Travel Plans!

We purchased tickets to travel to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia on April 17th.  We should return to America on April 24th!

A Court Update

On March 16th, we passed the adoption court in Ethiopia.  This means that Ethiopia has approved us to adopt two boys. We will post more information when we can.  The next step is for the US embassy to grant a hearing to obtain a US VISA.  Once that is done, we can fly to Ethiopia to pick up our two new sons.

I 600 approval recieved.

This means when we adopt M and R we are allowed to bring them into the US, if they meet all the "orphan" guidelines for the US. As we understand it they do.
