Jake and Noelle

Thank you Danae!  

Danae and Dan were able to meet Jake and give him more pictures of his forever family right after Thanksgiving.

They went to Jake's orphanage and brought his friend, Noelle, home to the USA!

Danae was able to give us some new pictures that we hadn't seen yet. 

In the group picture below, Jake is on the right side with the red, white, and blue short sleeve shirt and Noelle is standing right beside him with her cute pigtails.

   We sent Jake his first care package back in Feb, for his birthday.  And looked what happened!

Danae said, "I wondered where the cake came from for Noelle because we didn't send it."  Now you know why Jake has that expression on his face! 

Jake, when you get home, we will not make you share your cake!  

We will be meeting our new son on Jan 6th or 7th, 2013!  

Then, we'll leave Jake's province and travel to Joy's province!  Please pray for them as they are about to experience the "Big Change."  Your prayers for them and our family are cherished beyond words!

And yes, we are packing! Ok, practice packing and gathering all the things from the list that we need!  We can hardly believe how close it is now!
