We have all of our needed appointments and are now waiting
to travel on May 4th-17th. Gotcha day is May 7th, that is the day we will finally get to meet Raya.

April 1

We received our Traval Approval (TA) today!
Who would have guessed that it would happen on April fools day?
Tonight our agency (Harrah's) will request a (CA) Consolate Appointment for when we are in China. This is the last appointment for when we will be in China. Once we know this date we will leave for China 2 weeks before that appointment. It takes 2 weeks in China to complete the process and come home with Raya. It usually takes 48-72 hours to receive this appointment date so I am soo excited that we will have our dates of when we will be traveling by this weekend. Wow!!
What a journey!!
Lilypie Date is set Ticker

Our Beautiful Family!!

July 12, 2007

It is hard to believe that it is already July. We have been busy traveling to visit family and friends all over the place.

Referrals came out for the families logged in from Nov. 7 - Nov. 14 so we still have a pretty long wait. Our log in date is Jan. 4th so if China continues to put out referrals a week at a time we are looking at a referral for us around 6 months from now. It seems like they are making the referrals sometime the beginning of each month. My biggest concern is that we will be traveling in 2008 and the olympics will be in China in the year 2008.

We will have a better idea again of the wait time again around the first week in Aug.
Until then keep our little girl in China in your prayers. Please pray for God to watch over her and keep her safe, warm and healthy.
