So this whole blog thing was Andrew's idea. He is the writer in the family. This will be my attempt to start us off and hopefully he will take over from this point. As most everyone is aware we are in the process of adopting two little boys from Ethiopia. Today we received our court date! It is April 30th so we are praying that we pass the first time. Often families wait through multiple court dates before passing due to paperwork errors that occur in country. Once we pass court our travel dates should be about 4-6 weeks later. We are very excited and can't wait to get our boys home to meet all their family! Isn't it just the coolest that God gives us family members that extend beyond our blood lines, and that He builds our families in so many different ways? We can't post pictures of the boys until they are officially ours and for now we will just call them "G-man and Surf." The abbreviated names are mostly because we can't pronounce or hardly keep the spelling straight for their Ethiopian names! Please pray along with us as we ask God to be preparing their little hearts for their new family and that He would be preparing our hearts for our new additions.
