Getting ready to go to Haiti!

Well we are getting ready to go to Haiti! I really should be putting our suitcases in my car right now but blogging is more fun.

We have over 200 pounds of donations (like baby formula) we are taking down in our luggage - that translates to four 50 pound checked suitcases, two 40 pound carry on suitcases, and two heavy backpacks.

We are staying at a friends house tonight closer to the airport we fly out of and will be leaving bright and early tomorrow morning. Arriving in Miami late tomorrow afternoon/evening.

As most of you are arriving at work on Monday morning we will be arriving at the orphanage!!! Wish us luck as we meet our son Kobe for the very first time! Between filing our forms in Port Au Prince and visiting the village of TiMache on an ox-cart ride we should be very busy. Hopefully I will be able to keep you all updated nightly on this blog!!

Keep checking!!!
