we're on our way Mei lynn!


We are praising God because today we confirmed our actual travel dates to get our girl. we will pick her up on Aug.3rd (which is Aug.2nd here). We have seen continues blessings alone this journey but today we saw a great one. Our friend and language teacher gave us the name of her travel agent she uses to travel to China and she found us excellent fares, $2000. LESS than we had expected to spend. Because of that we have decided to take Brixton along with us. If you didn't know all along he was ready to travel with me if David was unable to. He has been such a good sport and always a help to me that we asked him if he would like to actually use his passport and visa and come with us. He agreed. Another praise is that Wendy is still on summer break and will be having tons of fun here with the 3 other kids back here at home, God is good. Something else cool is that in our travel group there is a family from Valparaiso IN adopting an 8 year girl also, again God is just the best. Forgive us for neglecting most everything lately this really has been a crazy time for us. My head is spinning with lists as well as trying to remember the new language we are learning. Really I don't see anything slowing down until she gets back and we stay in and let her just adjust to being a Rill but yeah right who I am kidding it probably won't be any better I,ll have 5 kids then! Thanks for your patience and prayers we need them!
