Still waiting, so excited!

We can wait no longer!

Dora is due here any minute!

Let the fun begin!

We are having a wonderful time at the Barcelo in Guatemala City. This place holds so many memories for our family. It is where We first met Lily. Also, this is where we handed her back to her foster mother for an unknown period of time until we could come back and bring her home forever.
The sun shinning and the pool is warm. This evening we will be having Dinner with Lily's lovely foster mother and her family. Lily is so excited, she has been asking "how much longer" about every five minutes . I plan to keep her busy swimming for the rest of the afternoon to pass the time.
Late this evening the rest of our group will join us here at the barcelo and tomorrow we will make the long bus trip to Panajechel.

Guatemala bound!

we are on our way! After months of Planning and weeks of work, shopping, laundry and much packing, we are waiting for our flight at the Muskegon airport. I am thankful for the great group of students from Forest park that prayed over some of us this morning. We are so excited to embark on this adventure.
