Great News on Fundraising!

Drum roll please....
We have only $710 left to raise of the $6,000 we needed for bringing our sweet girl, Kaylee, home from South Korea (only 71 puzzle pieces remain)!  So amazing and humbling, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Now onto where we are at in the process - I luckily follow a Facebook group that tracks everything in the adoption process in South Korea.  Unfortunately, it looks like we will not get to travel this year (we knew this might happen but I was hoping it wasn't the case).  As of now, our best guess for our first trip might be around February 2016.

So for now, we just pray and send care packages to our sweet baby girl.  She turns 2 August 5.  I did send her a birthday care package that was filled with snacks, a rain coat, cute kitty cat outfit, Lamby, a baby doll, etc (we can only send what fits in a gallon bag - and by now I have become an expert at packing a gallon bag, there's a science to it).  We also included a homemade card with our picture in it.  We just can't wait to get our sweet baby girl home.

We really appreciate is our agency in CO - AAC.  They have been wonderful about sending us updates and pictures almost monthly (which really helps with the huge wait).  I love the fact that they actually traveled in May to visit the kids and I got some precious precious videos of our sweet girl and tons of pictures.  Probably one of the sweetest things arrived the other day via e-mail - the outline of her little hand and foot (I know seems like nothing to most of you, but to me that just melted my heart).  Thanks so much for all the people working at AAC to help bring our baby home.  Hopefully Kaylee will be home soon!
