So the plan as of today...

We are done... Finalized... Completed
here in Belem, anyway :)

Yesterday we got the passports and
Completed everything medical that
Needed completed before traveling
To Rio!

The Patterson's and the Shulz's helped
Get everything out of the rental today...

While the guys delivered the last of the
Furniture, Jenny and I were able to return
The keys, work out delivery of the rental
Car and Jenny cooked lunch... amazing!

We once again have moved in to the
Pattersons bed and bfast (what Scott
Calls their home!). The girls are loving
Having friends to play with.

While I was out walking this afternoon
They planned me a surprise party with
Lots of balloons, singing, dancing,
Cake and ice cream... yep i was surprised.

Our flight to Rio leaves at 5:55 am...
So its not long now before we embark on
Our next leg of the journey!

We will get to spend the afternoon tomorrow
With The WBC team in Rio!!  How cool!
And then we will get to see them off on
Their flight home (second time I've watched
As others return home :)

We have the drs appt for the girls on Monday
And our embassy appt on Tuesday at 9.
If all goes well our flight is scheduled to
Depart on wed eve?!  Home on thurs!

The girls are a bag of nerves and fear..
Please pray for them... Their hardest part
Of the journey is beginning now!!

They have seen Dad show out through this month
In unbelievable ways...

On Adoption Day... We were scheduled for a
1:00 pm hearing... We got a call at 9:30
Telling us to get to the courthouse ASAP
Because the judge wanted to go ahead
(and since he returned from vacation that
morning just to do our hearing we figured we
better move!!)

we called Victor (our friend and translator for
the Hearing) and he was sick with the flu!  Ut-oh!
i called Jenny and as always, she was more than
willing to help!  So we left to go get her wet
headed straight out of the shower. 

on the way to the courthouse the police pulled us
over... Jenny was able to talk him into letting
us go but... he still wrote us a ticket (our 2nd one).

we got to the courthouse and found out that one of
our social workers had been in a wreck, so the
paperwork was not completed. 

Needless to say the enemy was working overtime
to distract all from the main point.  But as the
story goes... God kept us all focused and pushing
forward and...we were blessed to taste God's goodness. 

To God we give all Glory!!!

Thank you so much for continuing to take this journey
with us... we feel your prayers!
