Want to Help Support Our Adoption?

Ava is home! Naturally, Kari is itching to get back to her crafts, and now she has a new model! Continue to check out her blog to see the latest and greatest.

We now have a blog devoted to Kari's fundraising crafts! Please take a moment to browse the website and, if you like what you see, share this new blog with your friends and family! http://avaadoptionfundraising.blogspot.com/

YAY!


We are approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!!!! Oh wow are we excited. The director of our agency said that we should be totally, 100% approved in Kaz in two to three weeks. After that we wait to get our letter of invitation and then we're off! As far as we know the baby girl that we were told about is still waiting for a family to take her home. That family very well could be us :-) So, right now, if things keep moving along we will be traveling in July. James and I have been praying and trusting that we would get through the MFA for so long and it's finally happened without any complication. Glory be to God.

"To the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen."
Jude 1:25

Prayer Requests:
-That our paper work continues to be processed smoothly.
-That Ava is safe, healthy, and loved wherever she is.
-That we would have safe travels and no unexpected changes while in country.

We love you all!
