OK, so now what??

Hello everyone!! I am sure you are all wondering so, now what? Well things have been a bit of a whirlwind since we got our referral. I don't cry everyday now just every other. I can't believe they are ours. The first thing we had to get done was an addendum to our home study. Clint and I had originally said we wanted a sibling group ages 2-5. Now we have unrelated children and they are ages 5 and 7. So we had to contact our home study agency in Cheyenne and get the changes made. That has been forwarded to our placement agency in Indiana and from there it will go to Ethiopia. Once Tigist (the social worker in Ethiopia that works for AFAA) receives the addendum she will go to the Ethiopian court and request that Natinael and Kidus be assigned to us and it will be official!! We then will travel within 4-6 weeks to Ethiopia to bring our boys home. I am hoping to have everyone home for Christmas. We should be in Ethiopia for 5-7 days. We have contacted a travel agent that specializes in adoption travel and are starting to get plans made.
The girls are doing well. Bailey is done with her Freshman volleyball season. We traveled to Gillette last weekend and watched Bailey's team struggle through their last day. She is such a great player, I hope she doesn't get too discouraged and will go out next year. Basketball starts on November 12th. Things should get really crazy then. Sierra will be playing Varsity and Bailey on Freshman maybe Sophmore or JV. Different schedules of course!!
This is so unbelievable!! It really is happening and we are all so excited. Thank you all for your love and support. As we get more information about the boys we will pass it on to you.
