Treat!!!!!!!!!!

Okay disregard last blog submission! We are booked to go to Haiti on Monday!!!!! We got late day word that the Consulate will accept our faxed forms. We leave on Monday from Detroit into Dallas and then onto Miami. We fly into Port Au Prince Tuesday morning. We go to the Consulate on Wednesday to get their visas (I promise to be on my best behavior). Sight see on Thursday and fly out on Friday morning. We get back into Detroit very late Friday night. We are still debating whether to spend the night in Detroit. Please no one come to Detroit, it is too late and too far. We will plan to see everyone once we get back. My mom is booked to come in tomorrow afternoon to stay with the boys. Also, we got great rates on our airfare and actually booked all of our seats one-way and came out better.

We are still flying high and haven't come down to earth yet! It is still hard to believe we are going. I already have a list going and I feel like I need to clean something. I think I am nesting! Thank you for all of your prayers! We will keep you updated as we go from here. Keep checking back and we will try to post while we are down in Haiti!

Praise God!!!!
Love,
Allison
