After more than a year of waiting for this day, we spent all afternoon on the phone (not the part we were waiting for) and ended the evening with 5 one way tickets to Guatemala City. YAY!!!!!
The human part of our family will be flying out early in the morning on July 3. Snickers, our beloved dog (most of the time) will be flying out the night before. That means two trips into Boston, but that is the only way that she could be on our flight from Houston to Guatemala City. She gets to stay in a state of the art kennel, where she will no doubt get more attention and running time than she does here at home in the run of a night.
Our dear friends Andrew and Becky, and their boys, will be picking us up at the airport and bringing us to our condo. We are also planning to spend the next day with them at a waterpark, celebrating Independence Day. (Aside - I mentioned earlier to someone that we would be celebrating July 4 with them, and got the response - "Well, it won't be July 4 down there...")
For all of you that will be seeing Emma, a warning - she is convinced that her eyes are brown now. She has been saying so for days, but today she asked Aunt Susie to give her some. Susie rubbed her own brown eyes and then touched Emma's, so now she is thoroughly convinced that her eyes have changed to brown - "just like Susie's." Please, don't burst her bubble. She'll figure it out when she's old enough, or change her mind tomorrow.

I don't have words (this doesn't happen often) for how I'm feeling. It must be because I'm in such disbelief, this is really happening isn't it?
Let me pray and sleep, I hope to have more for you later:)
Man I love you guys!
