Leaving on a jet plane....

Today I got word to get my plane tickets and give hotel preferences so they can make my reservations. They have scheduled my Giving & Receiving ceremony for July 4th. This means I will probably be leaving on July 1st. I have contacted the travel agent and am awaiting confirmation. This is hard to believe for us, but we will wait patiently because we know that God can do anything. Praise Him.

NEWS!!!!

I receive word on Thursday morning to get my visa ready for entry into Vietnam on the 17th. I have sent off for my visa, which I should get by Wednesday and have my hotel information. I am just waiting for information so I can get plane tickets. I was told I should be in Vietnam for about 10 days. The schedule I was told is: Arrive in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, go to orphanage and get Cara, have the Giving & Receiving Ceremony, have immigration interveiw, apply for Cara's passport, wait 5 days for passport, have visa interview and medical exam (at this point, I am not sure if I fly to Hanoi, Vietnam first or have the visa interview/medical exam), wait two days for visa (in Hanoi), come home. When I get more, I will write more.

Boston Aquarium, Birthday, Graduation



Since all three events happened with days of each other, here they are. Lucas' 6th birthday party was on Thursday evening, the class trip to the Boston Aquarium was on Friday and the kindergarten graduation was on Tuesday evening. The kindergarten class did some solos and I do have a video of it...very cute.
