We are heading to ATLANTA in the morning!!
Our biometric fingerprint appointment is bright and early
9:00am
That is obviously NOT early if the trip was right down the road...
HOWEVER, we have a good 2 hour drive or more to Atlanta, so we are going
to be getting up and hitting the road early!
We were going to attempt to make this our 10 year anniversary trip but that is NOT happening!
With our appointment being so early in the morning..and us having to leave SUPER early it just wasn't looking promising! Our families are always AMAZING to watch the kiddos but this IS the middle of the week :) My sister has a commitment that is NOT child friendly but would have been able to watch them tomorrow afternoon. My mother in law could watch them all after 11 and my mom was working but would of course be wiling to watch them after work. They were all scrambling to try to help but in the end we just didn't see how it was going to work. My mother in law went ahead and let Alyssa stay with her and she is taking her to a sewing/quilting group tomorrow. The boys around sewing machines is NOT the best idea :)
So, all of that to say...we are going to enjoy having our sweet boys with us. They are actually very excited about going OUT OF TOWN. They think that is the coolest idea EVER. Little do they know we are having an appointment that may require them sitting for quite some time. We are excited to make the very best out of it.
So, it looks like no BIG 10 year celebration in the way that we thought.
However, we know that traveling to Congo and picking up our sweet babies is the BIGGEST celebration we could have! We will make it somewhere...sometime. Just the two of us ;)
Ok, the ten year post is coming...just been TOO busy and that one is going to take a WHILE!
OH...WE GOT Eli's BIRTH CERTIFICATE this week!!! Not the one with our names on it...just his precious name! HOWEVER, I LOVED IT!!! Made me cry, smile, and flip out a little!! We didn't get Chloe's and our agency said...it is somewhere out there..so FOR NOW...that is good enough!!
Have a WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY everyone! If you think about our family today..please say a prayer for travel safety and a great time!!
How funny! We live in Soddy Daisy and I accidently came upon your blog. We are in a process to adopt from Latvia and our biometrics appointment in Atlanta was July 11th :) We did ended up going a week earlier, as a walk in, otherwise I am sure we would have met y'all. Love your blog, I truly enjoy following your story. Can't wait to hear about your trip!!
