Magadan here we COME!!!

We've been waiting for an MOE official to sign off on the invite. While everything was ready on Monday it took until Wed. for that one signature. BUT I'm told the invite is official and we were told to book airplane tickets and visas!! So we did!!
Now I'm just waiting on the official referral. My agency says that should be e-mailed to me on Monday. (I've already received a mini referral, but I still want the BIG Referral letter before I start talking about her to family and friends) So today I started putting together the photo book we are going to leave with her. It has pics of me and my husband, little "B", both dogs, our home, her room, and both sets of grandparents. I figured that should be enough people and things for her to start with. I tried to find pics of us having fun and doing things. The photo book is a Disn*y "Princess Book".... and I'm thinking about putting the photos I took of Steve this past August with each of the princesses in the book.


I actually took the photos for him to study up on his princesses, because he didn't know Sno* Whit* from the others...( yes I do believe we have all the princesses represented!!) so I took photos with each one and know he knows who is who!!

Can you guess which two are his favorite.... and no it's not either of the ones here!! (Stay tuned I'll post pics later)

But anyway getting back to the photo book. The orphanage director said in the small bio we have of her, that she loves fairy tales -- so maybe she'll think her dad is cool because he knows all the princesses personally!!

Oh, that's funny. I thought for a sec. that was YOU in the top picture with your husband! LOL.

Can't wait to hear more details about your referral. Age? Just one tidbit?

Aww that's a great idea. I'm guessing he likes Ariel - sea shell bra? lol.

Still bummed we didn't get a chance to meet up... :(

I'm guessing Ariel, don't all men like her tiny tip??

Grace is obsessed with Cinderella or "Rella" as she is called at our house, she would definetaley think Steve rocks with his Princess photos.
