We have an official H2K Day!

So I have already mentioned we are leaving for Kenya.  I wrote this a while ago ... so here's our 'formal' announcement lol

We have booked our plane tickets and we are: Herrings to Kenya on June 4!

We are so excited to FINALLY be going.  This would not be possible if we did not have a house.
We found a house to live in .... it's AMAZING and are thrilled to have such a beautiful home to live in while we are in Kenya.  We are thankful to the family that agreed to rent to us!
Here's our house:

We are living just outside of Nairobi.

There is much to be done before June 4. We need to pack up our home here and hopefully find someone to rent it. The realtor is coming today.  And just general packing of items that we are going to bring to Kenya. We are bringing the stuff in our luggage, we are not shipping anything, so we are very limited.

We will not have our referral (information about the children that we are going to adopt) by the time we go.  Since we have had this 2 month delay with the FBI background check. So we will go to Kenya and get settled in with our family of 4 ..... and wait to become a family of 6 :)

  2. wow Tracy...this is incredible! I had no idea! Do you KNOW the children you are adopting or are you just waiting until you arrive??? How exciting!!! How long do you plan to stay in Kenya? Sounds like an epic and beautiful adventure ahead of you. Good luck, happy travels and I hope to see some amazing photographs in the coming weeks and months.
