From Here to There

We are beyond thrilled to know that we will be leaving Sunday, July 21, to begin the final leg of bringing our family together!  In one moment, we could shout it from the mountain tops.  In another moment, we begin to shake and tremble as think about what is to come.  So many uncertainties and new territory for us all, but we keep being drawn back to the the realization that God knew all of the moments that are to come before we took our first breath.  We know He is not surprised by anything, and in these last few days of planning our travel and booking flights, He has shown us that He is there with us through each step of the way!

Remember my belly aching from Friday...well, that delay resulted in our losing a hold on our tickets.  I was wringing my fists as we searched for new flights.  I really wanted to fly out of our home town so we didn't have to drive two hours home with 3 new little guys in car seats for the first time.  Another hold canceled, and I feared the flights would be so high that even out of Charlotte or Atlanta, the fares would be too high for us to continue with our plans to travel next week.  Turns out that our agent actually found flights out of our home airport $50 cheaper than the larger airports!  Yippee!  God is good all the time!

So, the countdown is on!  We're shaking and grooving and trying to scramble around here to get ready for some more Wiley chaos!  Pray with us as we finalize our accommodations in Ethiopia and finish our t-shirt fundraiser.  The outpour of support has BLESSED OUR SOCKS OFF (or flip flops...it's too hot for socks)!  We can't sing His praises enough for the generous donations and gifts from you all!

Thank you for your prayers and support!  If you or anyone you know wants to order a shirt, please just tell them to go to our blog and click on the picture of the t-shirts for directions!
