As expected this past weekend was filled with overwhelming joy! I woke up early Thursday morning, packed up the mini-van and took off to Orlando. We arrived at Fort Wilderness at around 11:15 am, we checked in, dropped our stuff off at the cabin and proceeded to the airport to pick up Jill and the girls.
Jill and the girls where the highlight of our trip. It was so wonderful to spend quality time with them. We hit EPCOT first, we arrived at EPCOT at around 2:30 pm and walked the entire park by the end of the night. EPCOT is an amazing place, my favorite Disney park by far. We did the Magic Kingdom on Friday and lastly visited Hollywood Studios on Saturday.
Here are my favorite pictures of our trip.
Now for an adoption update!!!!
We sent in our dossier today!!! Yes, you read correctly, we completed our dossier and sent it into AAI today. Now it'll need to go to the Ethiopian Embassy in Washington, D.C. for authentication and then it'll be sent to Ethiopia and we will be "officially" waiting for our referral!!! We are getting there and we are now one step closer to Anaya..

Praising God that your dossier is on its way!!!!!!

looks like a great trip!
you are so fast with the dossier!!
you guys are going to end up getting your placement months before we do! it will take me at least 2 months to put our dossier together, being a first timer and all.
I found your blog by "blog surfing"! We are with AAI too and submitted our dossier on Feb. 28. Our papers should be returning any day from the State dept/Embassy and then our dossier will be on its way to Ethiopia! We are requesting a girl under 2 so it looks like we might be in for the same wait time??
I love your blog, by the way :)
