Paperwork, Paperwork, and more paperwork

Yesterday our travel counselor sent us paperwork to fill out for our Visas. So hopefully we are ahead of the game here. We went back to Fedex and sent that out today. Hopefully that is it for the paperwork but I have a feeling not. I know when we get to China we will have to fill out more but this is getting ridiculous. but it is all worth it at the end to get Olivia home with us safe and sound. We still haven't received any updates on Olivia so we have no idea how big she has gotten. We also learned today that we will not be going to home town of Lizhou. We will meet her in the capital of her province which is Nanning. Norman and I are a little disappointed in this.

Sign, Seal, and Deliver

Well the letter is back in the hands of FedEx. Back to Austin and then on ward to China. Now we wait again for TA (travel approval). It should come in about two weeks according to our new bestest friend Kim at GWCA she has been such a trooper with us. We don't know what we would have done without her. Norman and I have had ups and downs with this adoption. Mostly downs until this last month came along and now I can finally say "The Wait is worth it". I use to think people where nuts saying that. But she kept us from going crazy and we just love her. We have never met her but we feel she is part of our family and I am telling if anyone is with GWCA now or want to be in the future please ask for her she is the most kind hearted person and I have ever known. And we don't know what she even looks like.

It is official!!!

We are so proud to annouce to you Our Little Girl Olivia Liu Godin!!! Kim at GWCA called as about 2:00 and said congrats we have the Letter it is official. What a day!!! She was born on December 27,2005 in Liuzhou City in the province of Guangxi.

Walking for Cancer

My office walked a couple of Sundays ago for Cancer. It was a very good time and cannot wait to do it next year. It made you reflect on family that we have lost from Cancer and also Cancer survivors.
