We're Off

Dear Friends & Family,

We will be traveling tomorrow to bring Mia home. While in China we will post pictures and updates. This is a special trip that we have hope for and dreamed about over the last 16 months. We are thrilled that you can share this journey with us. We thank you for your prayers. See you soon.

All our love, Angela & Butch
