On Our Way


We are sitting in the Moline airport, ready to begin the first leg of our many-legged journey. This leg takes us from Moline, IL, to Chicago. Then we catch a flight to Dulles and spend the night at a hotel. Tomorrow's flight leaves at 9:30 EST and arrives in Addis at 8:30am Saturday (11:30pm Friday Central time). We then fly to Rwanda and arrive at 1:15pm Saturday(5:15am Central time)


What a full day it has been already! We spent last night with my family, and by this morning all my sisters and their families had arrived. My mom squeaked in a family photo right after my PA sister and family arrived and right before we left. Chad's mom and dad graciously delivered us to the airport, ran to Wal-Mart to get an umbrella stroller (since we forgot ours in the back of our van), and are headed back to a big Thanksgiving meal with my family. While we would love to be a part of the festivities, we are certainly thankful to be headed to Rwanda to pick up our boy.
