The plans are made, tickets are bought, bags are (well the bags are getting there)
Holly mailed off our passports and letter of invitation.
Why they have to invite you I don't know. Besides I couldn't read a word of it except my name.
I probably just signed away my vast fortune to some guy driving a cab somewhere. The jokes on him though, "I'm Broke".
We should get our visas ( Not the credit card kind ) By this weekend, and we will be set to travel.

Here is a picture of some of the toys we are taking to leave at the orphanage.



I think before we leave it would be better to take a picture of the
stuff we are taking for ourselves for the next six weeks. It won't be much but we plan on coming home loaded. (wink, wink)
Speaking of what we're bringing home, I did promise you names tonight didn't I? I wish I could post a picture of them and let you see them and their name
together. But the names will have to do until next week.

A drum roll please! Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da dad woops! That one just slipped but I think I'll leave it. Oh! now Holly
says it should be Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma but that doesn't sound like a drum at all!
One final note before the names, I sincerely apologize to Emily, whitney, & Eric. I know how important initials are to you and yes, I am aware of what
his initials spell.
I give you Elizabeth Grace Dunning and Andrew David Dunning

One week and counting

Hey Girls - Thanks for staying up and waiting for the names. I'm sure you were up anyway having fun! I wish I could have been there, but I'm a little busy right now:-)
(Give Tish's belly a little pat for me - I bet it is so cute) I miss you girls and can't wait to see all of you (and the newest member of the Cordrey family). What are the plans for our annual C-mas gathering this year??? We have to find a way for all of us to get together!! I love you all and feel blessed to be a part of our "circle of friends"

And to think to get you I just answered the page in the cafeteria;went down and there you were. Nothing to it.Seriously the effort you and Holly have made and are making shows a capacity for great love. It touches my heart. I know one thing that little girl and boy across the sea would really smile if they knew what kind of parents were on the way to rescue them....

Dave&Judy - You were the 2nd to wish me a happy b-day today. Sam mumbled happy birthday to me when I crawled into bed at 1:00 a.m. this morning. But I am glad you remembered too. I am blessed to have such a loving extended family. I love you both. Holly
