The Abraham Family’s Journey to Russia to Bring Home Their Daughter

July 7, 2008

We have travel dates!

Martin and I will be traveling to Russia on July 29 through August 3. We're finally going to meet our little sweetie! The dates are confirmed and Martin is looking at plane tickets as I type. Of course, that means we'll need to shell out more money for new Visas seeing as how our others expire on July 21. Good thing we discovered a treasure chest full of gold coins in the backyard when we dug a hole for our pool.

Now, if I could just remember where I put it.....

Yippeeee!! So glad you got those dates and it's really happening!! I'm sorry about the Visas, but in the end (as you know) it won't seem like a big deal! Keep us posted on packing etc.

fantastic news. i know shelling out more money for visas is a pain, but in the grand scheme of things, it ends up being a drop in the bucket. you will forget about it once you find her.

How cool!! That stinks that you have to redo your Visas but at least you do not have to spend the extra money to have them overnighted. I can not wait to read about your adventures.
Keeping your family in my thoughts and prayers,
