Two Days away!!

I can't believe that we are only 3 nights and 2 days away from our trip to the Ukraine. I have been non-stop all week getting ready for everything and haven't stopped to let it all soak in that this is really happening. Her room is cleaned and ready and we finished her picture book to bring with us to show her what her life will be like here (little does she know the crazy life she is coming in to)! Shawn has been working so hard getting our house ready. We are putting up our shutters in case a storm comes while we are gone and just cleaning up all around. I had to go get antibiotics today to bring with us in case we are to get sick over there. We wired all the money over yesterday so that was exciting. God has been so faithful to us and continues to provide. With our trip to New Jersey for Shawn's dad's funeral and other unexpected expenses, it really set us back in our budget for the adoption. Well two weeks ago, friends of ours gave us a donation that covered the exact amount we spent in NJ. We were blown away. God is so AWESOME! We are very thankful to so many friends and family members who have supported us from day one. I can't even begin to name names or express how blessed we are. Our daughter has an amazing group to come home to and we are closer than ever to bring home our princess! I was packing DVDs to bring and it felt so great to finally open up all the princess movies I have been buying throughout the years! She will love them!
