A quick update......

We got confirmation from Ann at Red Thread China that Bethany got the care package we sent. They would not release any info or pictures to her so we are hoping that our adoption agency can get us updated info before we travel.

We have submitted more paperwork to the National Benefits Center. Our agency sent it via overnight to them on 2/9. The tracking number shows it was delivered. When our agency called to check the status of it, she was told that it may take 1-2 weeks to hit the desk of our adjudication officer! UGH!!! Once that is processed, we should be able to get our travel approval.

Shelly & Madeline are leaving March 7th to go get Eli. We are very excited for them. You can follow their journey at Waala Family Adventures

Basketball is winding down. Evan is in on more tournament this week and Grant's team has the Padre Serra tournament coming up. They both have already started baseball practice! I just wish the weather would become a little more like baseball weather. We have another winter storm headed our way. It could bring us another 4-8 inches of snow! I am SO ready for spring.
