MosebyVaca: First Stop!

"Sooo, tell me about your trip!  What was your favorite part?!"
Well, of course, it's the morning we found out about our son!  However, we had a great time leading up to that morning. If you are catching up, Josh and I convinced our bosses to let us off for 3 weeks straight in December. So, we took off to see friends around the world.  We visited the Middle East, India, & China. Outside of a 10 hour layover in 2013 in Dubai, this was my first time to spend any time in the Middle East.

Little S told her parents one day before we arrived, "I only kind of remember them, BUT I'm about to jump out of my skin.  I'm so excited!"  Sure enough, the first morning she greeted me at my bedroom door to say hi!  Oh how good it was to just sit and fellowship with sweet friends.

On this leg of the trip, we had the best food of the entire trip, Yemenis food, visited a few shops, and mainly spent time hanging out with our dear friends that recently moved there for school. Each evening, we'd just sit around chatting, playing games, and taking care of kids.  It was so normal for us...love that.  Not skipping a beat!

MosebyVaca was less about sightseeing and doing cool things and more about seeing friends, hopefully encouraging them, and sitting around to love on their kids. A taste of home for them and experiencing life in another culture for us.  You can check out instagram & twitter for more pictures with #mosebyvaca.  
I'll be back soon with the next stop on #mosebyvaca!

Adoption Update: Updated Dossier off to agency and hopefully on its way to be processed.  Need that to process quickly to get any further down the road with bringing our son home.
