We have a Travel Date!

We found out today that Micah's Embassy appointment will be on January 8, 2009! It is a little later than we had hoped, but one thing we have learned is this is not about what we planned. Scott said something funny today that really fit "if you ever want to make God laugh you should make a plan yourself!" Anyhow, one cool thing is that we will be in Ethiopia when they celebrate their Christmas on January 7th. We are hoping to attend church while we are there, so it will be a perfect time of year. We will leave from Appleton, WI on January 4th and will return home on the 13th. Lots to do before we leave, but since I am retiring as of December 5th I guess I will have some time! ~Melissa

Hi Melissa! I found your blog thru the BFAS yahoo group. My husband and I adopted our son Elias thru BFAS and returned from Ethiopia with him in June. I have been bad about posting on the yahoo group (Eli keeps me busy!), but if you have any questions about traveling or anything, feel free to e-mail me at ddedels424@yahoo.com. I also posted about our experience in Ethiopia on my blog. Congratulations!
