Great Visit With Fellow-Adoptive Parents

We rode down to Burlington, NC to meet with our friends Tonja and Robby who are adopting from China too. We got to see their referral that they just got and Tonja even gave me a copy of her beautiful baby's picture and a very encouraging card! THanks Tonja! After lunch at Olive Garden (yum yum), we went back to their house and had wonderful conversation with them. It was so nice to just sit and talk and be with friends who "get us" as far as how hard this waiting is. They shared memories of their first adoption from China and we just had a great time! We honestly didn't want to leave! hahahahahahahahaha We even got to play with their cute doggy (McGregor!). YAY! Of course now I want a dog! hahahahahahahahaha Thanks Tonja and Robby for being such sweet friends.....can't wait to do it again and SOON!

You didn't mention that we made you sit through hours of video of Caitlin's Gotcha Day. HA!!! We enjoyed it to. We need to get together more often than we do. :)

We TOTALLY agree with the getting together more often thing! It was so much fun just hanging out with you guys and talking. And we loved the videos! It made it all seem like something that is really going to happen for us!!!!!!!
