WE ARE REALLY GOING!!!

We just recieved word that we have a Embassy date on August 4, therefore we will be leaving from TX for Ethiopia on the evening of August 1 (the Lord willing). On July 29 we return to the states from East Asia and then our sweet sister and wonderful future brother in love are getting married on August 1st (which Chris is performing). So pretty much right after the wedding it looks like we will be beginning the journey to pick up our little boys. Hopefully, they will be in our arms on August 3rd. We are soooooooooooooo excited and a little overwhelmed as there is a lot to do and many hours of travel in between. :)

So appreciate all your prayers, notes and emails these past few weeks, we were just saying today that it has been so encouraging and reminded us over and over how blessed we are by all of you. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

We will ask again for your prayers for these next few weeks. More to write later...we are off to bed.


And praise the Lord we have 2 more sisters who accepted the Father's love tonight. What a day!!

You will make known to me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; in Your right hand there are pleasures forever.
Ps 16:11

This adventure of parenting is a great ride...sometimes scary, sometimes frustrating...but mostly joyful and rewarding. You guys are going to be great parents- wait, you already ARE great parents...you've gone to great lengths to make sure they are loved and safe, how blessed those boys are! The Lowe boys are coming home! WOOHOO!!!
