Well, We're Off!

That's right. We leave tomorrow. Yehhhh I have to go finish packing so this post won't be long. We leave tomorrow evening and arrive in Dubai Tuesday evening. We are spending 3 nights there (I have always wanted to see the craziness). We will get to Addis on Friday morning, and hopefully meet Tegegn in the afternoon.

Some good news came this week. We found out that Tegegn's VISA is on it's way to Addis, which means that we will be arrive home on July 7th as a family of 4. I hope to be able to update this blog a couple of times a week to keep everyone informed of our whereabouts, and hopefully upload some pictures of the 4 of us.

I can't believe this day is finally here. It has been a very long journey, but not as long as some of my friends that are currently waiting for referrals. I hope a lot of referrals are given and that the slow down ends when we are away. I will be thinking about you all.
