The Date is set, in 21 days - Margaret & Peter will be seeing Anna!!!!

The date is set, in 21 days Margaret and Peter will be going to see Anna Maria. Margaret booked the flights last night, and we are leaving on Jan. 2, 2008 and returning Jan. 8th. Who knows, maybe this visit trip will turn into a pick up trip...........POSITIVELY THINKING OF CAUSE............ We were hoping to have enough frequent flyer miles, but we didn't - so Margaret booked the flights. Hopefully the next time we'll be able to fly with our frequent flyer miles. Margaret called Howard (General Manager) from the Vista Real (formerly known as the Quinta Real) and he gave us a really good deal on a suite. When we were there in August visiting, Margaret spoke to Howard a couple of times, not knowing who he was until the end of the trip. Howard gave Margaret his contact info. and told her that when we plan on visiting again, to give him a call and he would give us the best rates he can, and he did. Margaret's "email Pal" Barbara from Rochester (also using the same lawyer to adopt her son) will be going too, and our flights have the same lay over in Atlanta, so we will be flying to Guatemala together. It is soo exciting to be going to see Anna Maria. We are trying to get Pam (she too is using the same lawyer to adopt her baby) to come with us, but she is trying to figure out how to do it with work and all. So hopefully it'll be the three of us in Guatemala at the same time. Hmmm, I think I better get packing, so that is done too. Let me add that to the list of "things to do"..............

Also, just to keep you updated. The grandfather clause that has been in limbo for so long, was voted on yesterday and yes - there is a grandfather clause for the adoptions in process, but come January 30th, if we are not done with our adoption then our lawyer will have to do some paperwork to register us to complete the adoptions.
