Today is really just another day at our home.  We finished up school a little over an hour ago.  Things are going really well.  Abby and Gracie are currently playing together.  They have been playing Little House on the Prairie a lot.  One of our favorite shows!  I love to sit and listen to them.  The things they talk about and share.  I wouldn't trade it for anything. 

Yesterday, we finalized our travel arrangements for our first trip.  We will be leaving on October 9th and will be home October 16th.  We also found out a little more about what we will be doing while we are there.  We know that our boys will stay in Nazareth, so we will be staying there for a couple of days.  It will give us more time at the orphanage with them.  As with this whole process, things could always change.  We still have to pass court on September 29th.  Please continue to pray for us! 

Camp out in the backyard

Vince decided since we didn't have time to go camping, we would just set up in the backyard.  The girls loved it.  I slept inside in my warm, comfy bed :)
