We are in North Carolina!

We left at about 6pm on Wednesday. May 14th and arrived at our hotel on Thursday, May 15 around 5ish. The ride went well, Taya traveled good and it went pretty fast except when we got to North Carolina then of course it took forever with lots of traffic jams. But we finally made it, we took showers to feel human again and ate some supper. 

Then we drove to Matthews and found the agency just so we could make it easier in the morning!

We are physically and emotionally drained and ready for a good nights sleep! We will get to meet our son tomorrow morning around 10! We will be skyping the girls and family in the afternoon after school and then we will post pictures here after that!

We can feel all the prayers and support and we just want to say thank you to everyone for all your texts and calls along the way. We are so blessed and again feel so grateful...we are so anxious to meet our little man tomorrow!
