We're Going To Ethiopia!

We got the call today! Well, email actually (it is Saturday after all). We are currently on vacation visiting family in Washington DC and had just finished having dinner at an Ethiopian restaurant, of all places. I checked our email on my iPhone after we left and as soon as I mentioned it Joy started screaming (and hasn't stopped yet)!!!

We don't have all the details yet, but we do know that our court date will be July 21. That means that this time next month we will be in Ethiopia meeting our kids for the first time! We expect a call from our agency on Monday to give us more information. Looks like we will have a lot to get done in the next month, but I can't think of a better Father's Day present.
