The house is cleaned, our bags are packed, and the cat care schedule is all set (thank you Kim, Casey, Sherry, Jill, Donna and Mom!). We are a little anxious but mainly just eager to get to Owen and finally complete this long, winding journey.
We leave tonight and arrive in Frankfurt at about 9AM on the 23rd, and then press on to Almaty, arriving close to midnight. The morning of the 24th (Kaz time, which is 11 hours ahead of EST) we will meet with the sisters, then board the Yak for Owen's birth city. We hope we will be able to visit him that evening, but if not our visits will start on the 25th. We'll try to update the blog shortly thereafter.
Your thoughts, good wishes and prayers are much appreciated, and we will carry a bit of each of you with us! Check back often!

Good Luck, Best Wishes, We love you. Will be eagerly awaiting your first transmission from Kaz!! Kiss the baby for us! Love, MOM and DAD
Good luck!! I'll keep positive thoughts for your plane rides and your meeting with Owen!! Can't wait to follow your visits!
Bob and family,
I think it is a great thing what you all are doing. Having spent much of my life in third world countries, I know there is no shortage of children who need to be cared for by a loving family. My hats off to all of you and good luck.
Good luck to both you and Jodi. I pray for the safety of all three of you. We're all anticipating the arrival of Owen.
