Ethiopia -- here I come

What a difference a week can make. I really thought the best part of last week was finding out about our fingerprint appointments. I was so wrong. Kari of mycrazyadoption.com had different plans for me. On November 2nd she uploaded a video.. http://mycrazyadoption.org/winners-of-the-missions-trip-giveaway that changed everything. I was picked to go on a mission trip in February. Back story -- I had seen on another blog Kari was fundraising by selling adoption shirts to send someone on a mission shirt. It sounded like a good cause, we need shirts about adoption so I bought two, one for me and one for Dan. So imagine my surprise when my name was picked first and when it makes my winter break. I am needless to say overwhelmed but in a good way. I am so looking forward to this trip and all that I am going to learn from it.

Wednesday = fingerprints and then everyone keep your fingers crossed we get the 171H very quickly!! Last step of the dossier!

On a fun note I found the cutest Christmas outfit for Grace. Yes I am thinking a year ahead!
