Travel Dates

We finally got our travel dates!!! We leave for Vietnam on August 31st and stay in Vietnam through around September 22. Every day we try to purchase or set aside items on our packing list. We have prepared a package to send to Lilly Tai at the Orphanage, and our friend, Amie, asked a friend of hers to have the letter we wrote to the care takers translated to Vietnamese. I will try upload the letter in both English and Vietnamese in my next blog entry if I am able to upload a PDF. If not, it will go in Lilly's scrapbook at a minimum. We think about Lilly all of the time, Eli included. He wakes up each morning and asks about "baby sister", "Lilly", and/or "Vietnam". When we ask him what he will eat in Vietnam, he will reply "rice and noodles". He is very excited to see his baby sister, and he knows she will sleep in"baby's room" in the "crib".

We cannot wait to bring Lilly home!
