We are HERE!!!!!

We arrived in Bogota at 8:30 last night and settled into our bed and breakfast around 10. Most of the families (all families that we have met so far) are French so we are the only English speaking people we know. The others are here to adopt as well and already have their children.

We go today at 8 am to get Johan (pronounced with no H sound) and Karen. Hopefully after that I will have pictures to post.

For now I must go practice my Spanish!

I have some pictures of the last ice storm we had, and a Cardinal sitting on our table on the deck. I'll send them to the kids so they can see what it can look like around here in the winter! I will attach them to an email. I'll go send it now. Goodnight!

Love, Aunt Angie

We are all so excited here at TOL and watch your blog eagerly for pictures of the new family! I am anxious to share with Bible class. We all prayed for you in class, and will continue to every day.
