Update!

A quick update. My dad arrived in Ethiopia today to help Terry bring Samuel home. (Although it was a tough choice, we had to decide to send my dad instead of me for some personal reasons.)

Tomorrow, they'll pick up Samuel from the orphanage and hand over a 45-pound duffel bag of shoes as a donation for the orphanage.

On Monday, Terry has his appointment with Samuel at the US Embassy.

On Wednesday, Terry will pick up Samuel's visa, then the 3 guys fly out late that night.

On Thursday, November 24 (Thanksgiving day!) at 2:10pm, they land in Denver! And this PEBBLE will have become a STONE!

Here are a few more pics.
