I will send a more detailed update with pictures, but I know many of you have been asking and praying, so I thought I would let you know some answers :-)!!
First off, we got Tim's visa!!!!!!! Such a relief!! Thank you for praying!!!
A great HUGE thank you to all you wonderful women who graciously gave and participated in such a beautiful and fun baby shower!!! Ellie is one incredibly blessed girl!!!...and she will certainly be the cutest dressed :-)!!!
Also, I hope to get a picture out of all the details ASAP, but my mother is putting together a "Bai Jia Bei," or "100 Good Wishes Quilt." In short, it is one of the Chinese customs to have friends and family contribute a patch of cloth to be part of this quilt. More details to come (hopefully tomorrow), but we would love to have all of you who have been a part of Ellie's journey to have an opportunity to contribute to this special heirloom quilt!!
God is good all the time, and we continue to be amazed and blessed by the blessings He gives!!!
We have recently been blessed by beautiful "hand me downs" for Ellie of a matching dresser, nightstand, and desk as well as a whole crib bedding set of adorable ladybugs!!!....soooo fun!!!
Lastly, if all continues to go smoothly, we expect to get our travel approval from China in the next few weeks and get to travel with a travel group leaving on Oct. 23...
We'll keep you posted, and you can look forward to some fun pictures from the baby shower as well as the details for the quilt!!
Thank you again for your faithful support and prayers!!
