We are leaving tomorrow!

YES, Can you believe it? We leave in the early AM and arrive in LA, then catch the red eye to China. We actually miss Tuesday and arrive on Wednesday the 9th. We will spend a couple days touring Beijing before meeting up with the rest of our group on the 13th. I believe we will get Mia on the 14th or 15th.

Before we leave, there are some people we would like like to thank. . .

Our familes, who have been so generous, supportive and enthusiastic of our decision, and who will also be helping us out while we are out of town.

To our wonderful friends, who have spoiled us with gifts and have helped us thru this long wait!

To China, for allowing us the privilege of being parents to our Mia.

Please follow our journey, we wish you ALL could come along to experience it with us. We are so excited and can't wait for you to meet her.

Before we leave we wanted to post some pictures of Mike's retirement party, which was a blast. Mike and I haven't gotten home at 4am in a very long time. The city put together a wonderful party and it was great to see everyone. Thanks to Larry and Jimmy for making the trip, Molly and Makenzie for giving us their home to stay in while they were out of town and to Tami, who took care of our home and our pets.

Bon Voyage . . . .
