We had a great time celebrating together at a fun restaurant...KOBE. It's a Japanese Steakhouse where the chef prepares your food in front of you. It was a new experience for us. We laughed a lot! It was the perfect way to celebrate such a wonderful day.
Thank you for your wonderful comments...it's so fun sharing our news with you. We will post the details of our travel soon. We are hoping to leave on the 6th of May and return around the 23rd. By the way, if these dates stand, our Gotcha Day (the day we will unite with our daughter) will be Mother's Day! Is Our God perfection!?

Hi Brad and Amy! We rejoice with you on your travel date! Andy and Jill will be leaving for Ethopia on May 7 and back around May 16 or 17. Libi and Hope's "Gotcha Day" may be close to each other (maybe the same day!!). It is so exciting and even as grandparents we can hardly wait! Adoption into a Christian family is the greatest! We cannot imagine our lives without Caleb and now we will be welcoming Hope. Your family will never be the same!! What an awesome God we serve!!
We love you guys and pray your travel plans will go well for you!
Love, Ray and Marcia

Whhhoo Hooooo!!! Congratulations Arnolds!!! So excited for you to get your little girl!
I see mom told you we are going to get Hope on May 7th. We just got some more travel info this morning and I am just pinching myself... this is really going to happen!! Praise God! What an experience of a lifetime for our families. We would really love to get together with our families when we are all back and settled! We can't wait to meet your sweet Libi! We will remember you in our prayers as we travel! How beautiful is the body of Christ!
With love,
Jill and Andy Lehman
