Papers are on their way...

We got the Dossier papers Apostilled Wednesday morning and sent them to Buckner the same day!

It took less than 2 hours total to get what we needed done:

*pulled into a parking garage at 10:14
*walked to the Secretary of State office, signed in & went to the basement office
*waited about 10 minutes for the papers to be processed & brought back to us
*spent 2 minutes checking them to make sure they were ready to go
*went back to street level, signed out, walked down 1 block and then down Congress about a mile (Chris said it was more like 17 miles!) to the FedEx Office
*made copies of the Apostille papers
*mailed the package via FedEx Priority Overnight to Dallas
*walked back to the parking garage and left there around 11:50

All in all, a good day's work.

Got an email from our case worker today stating that they were going to forward the papers to Russia today.

Now to wait for a phone call letting us know the court date!

Getting closer!

Please continue to pray for our boys and us during this time.  So far we think we are okay financially with what we have in our Adoption Account (based on estimated costs, unless things change or go wonky).

  1. Papers are making the trip overseas that you will soon follow on. How exciting! Yes, we are praying for you and your boys, and for the process to continue to go smoothly. This journey is about to blossom into a new family...
