We are Home

Hi Everyone,
We are Home! We arrived home just 2 days ago and just praise God for everything he has done. Truly Talo's attachement to us has just been mircaculous and he is such a joyfilled boy. We have had no time to even unpack yet as Talo keeps us running after him all day (we love it though)! We have had experiend so much in these past two weeks and sometime when we have more time we will write all about it. But for now while our little man in sleeping we thought we would post a few pictures! We know you would rather have pics than our writting anyways! So enjoy! We love you all and treasure your prayers and support. God worked in amazing ways!


Jon doing all the packing for the big trip!


Our first view of Ethiopia!


Our first morning there, doing more paperwork before metting Talo!


Standing outside the transition home waiting to meet Talo for the first time!


Our first glimps of him as he was walking towards us!


Bending down to meet Talo, he just reached right up for us!


Lots of tears!


Being held by Daddy!


Back at the Hotel that night!


Playing outside the hotel!


Oh Talo's up got to go. Will post more later of the city, transition home and now our home! Love you all!

What beautiful pictures. Its awesome that someone had a camera to take pics while you met him for the first time. A picture is worth a thousand words. I especially love the one of Jon holding him for the first time. You should blow up these pictures and hang them in his room!

Welcome home.
