Consulate Appointment Set!

We recieved our consulate appointment today!!! Yipee....
We will be leaving for China on Wednesday, June 23 and returning on Saturday, July 10. We will fly into Beijing, arriving on Thursday, June 24. On Sunday, June 27th we will fly to Zhengzhou, which is the capital of Henan Province. Henan is the province in which Lily's orphanage is in. I am expecting that we will meet Lily for the first time on Monday, June 28. Lily will leave her foster home in Shanghai 1-2 days before we meet her and go back to her orphanage in Pingdingshan City. I believe that her care givers will stay with her and bring her to us on the 28th. From the 28th on she will be in our care!!! I just can't wait.
Hold on Lily girl we are coming to get you!
