If you're thinking to yourself, how are they going to make 1 Trip to get 2 children
in 2 different provinces....well, here's our plan.
First, Jake is in Xianyang City in Shaanxi Province and Joy is in Linyi City in Shandong Province.
Shaanxi Temple
Boat in Moat in Shandong (Jinan)
Amy, Grace, Shane, and Amy's cousin, Charles, will travel to China to bring Jake and Joy home.
We will complete all the paperwork in the children's individual provinces (this will take approximately a week in each province) and then we will go to Guangzhou, Guangdong and spend a week here (picture below). We will complete the final paperwork and exit medical exams for Jake and Joy.
It will be a long trip (to say the least), but we will try to make it fun! Have you ever traveled with 4 children on a plane?
TRAVEL DATES
We are still waiting on our travel dates. As of now, we are hoping to travel in Jan 2013. The adoption agency says we should receive Joy's TA at the beginning of Dec. 2012. The 3 week trip makes us put off our travel until January. There are many positives for us in this time line and God's plan is perfect!
Jake and Noelle
We hope to have some more pictures of Jake soon via a new blog friend, Danae. She & her husband are traveling to Jake's province to bring their new daughter, Noelle, home. The will leave on Nov 22nd. Jake and Noelle are in the same orphanage! If you want to follow their journey, here's their address:
