Please ducks get in a row!!!
We want to soar like eagles very soon!!!!!
This post will be little bits of updates of our family!
We only had one child at home for most of the week - Rochelle was the only one home, that probably won’t happen again! However, we made the most of it by going on a college visit at St. Olaf (I went in very skeptical - how could any other college com pair to NWC?!?) I have to admit I was very impressed! A friend went with us on our adventure (it ended up being more of an adventure than we had planned on with my many wrong turns!) - then it was on to the real excitement of the day. RETAIL THERAPY!!! We went to IKEA and Albertville and had the best time! (Okay, maybe not the best, but we found some great deals. The down side to the adventure is that M may never ride with me again with my added wrong turns between the two shopping havens!) :p There is one outfit that stands above all of the others - if you see little miss T skipping around in a pink tutu and stripped tights you will know that is the one I am talking about.
The best news of that day came at the end when we got home - we got a copy of our birth certificates. My sweet little ones look so forlorn though 
Wednesday we received our tentative travel date - the one thing that is holding us up is that some of our paperwork that the state has to process isn’t where it needs to go - we are praying that all of the details work out. I am continually amazed at how God works out the details! If it works out for our family to travel on the dates that we were given our kids would only miss three days of school and have the weekend to recover. One of the biggest blessings of this time table is that Paul would not miss any harvest time and that our kids would only have a couple of days to make up of work.
When talking to our specialist today I found out that T & T received our gift bags on June 17th! How exciting for me to know that they have been getting familiar with our faces for over a month now! Oh, how we can’t wait to meet face to face!!! Tomorrow I am going to pick up some big pictures that I had made to go on the wall - I am looking forward to seeing them up soon! (I’m sure I can talk M into helping with that 
God willing we could be traveling in 20 days (a little sooner possibly) - please pray that we have peace to know that God is in the details, He is sovereign and in control (we don’t have to be), and that we would find comfort in knowing that He works all things out for our good.
