We are leaving for Ethiopia in July !
Today was a big milestone in our adoption, today we got a tentative travel date !!!!!! An early Father's day gift !
We will be booking our flights soon and if everything falls into place as it should, our Gotcha Day will be on July 27 !!!!
We are SOOOOOO excited, we have not touched the ground all day. I can't wait for Pierre to meet our little girls as you can all imagine and of course I can't wait to hold them again !
We will be leaving with CHOIR and spending the first part of our trip with them and seeing our compassion child as well and will meet up with the other families to receive our children when everyone arrives!
I cannot wait to find out which family we will be travelling with and if we know any of them !
The best is yet to come and we can now start the countdown and the packing !!!!

Lisa, SOOOOO excited for you and Pieere...it makes me cry to think of you getting your little girls and Pierre seeing them for the first time :)
I am so jealous (in a good way lol) that you are going back to Ethiopia so soon.
And meeting your Compassion child again...AND AND AND all the other cool things you will do and see.
Have an awesome 35 days of planning and dreaming.
Happy Fathers Day Pierre!
