On Wednesday we got one of the most exciting phone calls of our lifetime. We got our referral and have already sent back our acceptance paper work for a beautiful, healthy 20 month old baby girl. She is in Ethiopia, Africa. We can not take our eyes off of her pictures (we have 2 of her). Until she is legally ours we can not share pictures with you. We really wish we could but this is to protect her privacy. When we showed Ella her picture, she said, "look Momma, that girl pretty". She has amazing eyes. We can already tell so much about her just by looking into her eyes. Her little nose looks like Ty's and her ears stick out a tiny bit like Casey's.
The next few weeks will consist of us finding out our court date and then we will travel about a month after that. We are hoping this will be early next year.
Also, we wanted to let you know that we have a new fundraiser to help us with the remainder of our adoption expenses. It's an instrumental Christmas CD because it is that time of year! It would make a great gift!! You can get yours by clicking on the yellow "BUY NOW" button on the top right of this page. A portion of the proceeds will go to help with our adoption finances.
Thank you all so much for your support in every way.

Oh, I am so excited for you guys! How long was it until you got your referral? I can't remember back to that first conversation that we shared with the case worker. I can't wait to see her. Hope you get a quick court date. How exciting! You just had your ultrasound. congrats.
I love what Kelly said "you just had your ultrasound". We are so, so excited to meet our new little niece. We're praying for her, for you all and for the process. Oh, I just can't wait until she gets home!
We love you all, Team Woodruff
