Hmmm...what might we be thankful for this Thanksgiving day? How about
A COURT DATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's right...an answer to a prayer (or should I say numerous prayers). We are so excited, busy, frantic and OVERJOYED! What a day to get this news. We heard yesterday that it was possible that we would know very soon but to get this news gives us the greatest reason to be appreicative today. Our court date is set for November 30!!! No...it's not a typo - we will be in court pettitioning to adopt our son a week from tomorrow! We need to be in our region on Wednesday! We have yet to book flights, etc. but will post more as we know it, including iternerary, etc....oh and yes - we will be able to post pictures just as soon as court is final (a few days after our arrival). For now - I'm all smiles all the way down to Minneapolis to eat some turkey and surprise our family with this grand news.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Have fun surprising the family.
Hooray!!! What an awesome Thanksgiving day gift! How incredible that your son will be home before Christmas.
What an amazing way for your family to spend Thanksgiving! You don't know me, but my husband and I have been following your blog since the beginning of October when we decided to pursue our adoption in Russia. Your blog has been very inspiring to us and we wish you the absolute best. Prayers for safe travels and a lifetime full of happiness!

Hooray!!! Yippeeee!! We are so happy to hear this great news!!! Can't wait to see pictures of all of you together for the first time :)
Congratulations. How wonderful! We are so excited for you. Wow, that is fast for a court date. Unbelievable really. Here you were hoping to have one by Christmas and yet you have one before the end of November. Yeah!
We heard through another blog that our agency will only have one more court date in December for a family who traveled in April, so we won't be going until January at the soonest. We are a little sad about this news. We so hoped we would get the call before Christmas!
Many blessings to your family as you travel to Petro once again. I look forward to the upcoming posts and cannot wait to see pictures!!
God Bless!
