AND THE TRIP COMES TO AN END


AFRICA

SOUTH AFRICA

THE GATED, SECURITY, DEVELOPMENT


THE NEW HOUSE

And so our trip comes to an end - It is offical - The owner of the house will be here at Seattle Coffee in 20 minutes to sign a 1 year lease on the house. AHHH We also think we have narrowed down a school to Charis Christian School. (Click on the Ministries tab and then School) It is 10 minutes from the house. The wierd thing is it is almost like driving from our house to Dutton Christian, but only a much busier road.


Becasuse our day ended early and of course the sun decided to NOT come out today - we all went bowling and if you look closly LOOK WHO BEAT THE TWO BOYS - Great Game



Scott and Darin have a couple meetings tomorrow (Thursday) and then off to the airport to come home to our loving family and friends. I am so ready to come home. I am also excited that God truly has blessed our trip and guided us to the right places and people we were meant to meet. I am so at peace and excited (yet sad) to start our new adventure as a family. ALL I CAN SAY - WE WILL HAVE A SPARE ROOM TO WELCOME ALL OF YOU!!!

HERE ARE A FEW THANKS:


Special thanks to Darin Fey who traveled with us and helped us find our way around. It was a huge help to Scott and I.


Special THANKS to ALL the Seattle Coffees for allowing us to sit at their tables (even if we didn't order coffee) to use the internet.

What a trip! So glad that your (and ours) prayers were answered so clearly. It seems that everything has fallen into place so perfectly. It's amazing what wonderful results we find when we're in God's will.
I will show the kids the pictures when Maddie gets home from school.
They have been so good!
Way to go Lia! Beating the guys at bowling...you proved yourself to Scott that you really are a good bowler. Must be all those bowling classes at GRCC!
We are so anxious to see you both and to hear all your stories. Be safe and we'll see you on Friday!!
Love you, Mom and Dad

Dear Scott and Lia - Wow, God is so good! Like we say about our adoption process - "If God leads you to it, He'll help you through it." We are so thankful that everything worked out and you could get so much accomplished. The house and school both look perfect! Everything is so much nicer than I would have thought! It's beautiful! We'll pray that you have a safe trip home. Love, Uncle Dave and Aunt Marva
