Update on our adoption...the courts in Ethiopia just reopened after a very long rainy season. It's kind of funny to think that we are planning our lives around another country's rainy season, but we definitely are. Anyway, the wait is still 6-10 months, and we've been waiting around 5 months. Since we were very specific in the age range we've requested (0-6 months), it may take a little longer. We COULD have a referral by Christmas, but I'm thinking more like January. The referral is when we get a picture of our son and all his medical information. Typically, you travel 2 months after referral. Since Brian is going to Africa by himself (yes, you heard that correctly), we are hoping it will be close to spring break. Please continue to pray for us as we journey down this path.

Veggie Tales Live
We took Ella to see Veggie Tales Live. She loved every minute of it. It was very loud, so I thought for sure she wouldn't like that part; however, she hung right in there and danced and sang with the best of them. Of course she had to have a "glow wand", and I'm pretty sure if you asked her she'd say that was the best part. Here are a few pics from the night:
