CA and travel dates!!

We got confirmation of our Consulate Appointment today, along with our schedule. We leave home on November 1, Gotcha Day will be November 5, our CA is November 15, and we return November 17!!! It is all very exciting. One month from now we will have our Gracie Girl! She is already packed, so now I'll start on the rest of us! Now, before you laugh, remember that I'm packing for summer weather, so it's clothes that we are no longer using, as Fall arrived here last week! It's really starting to feel real now, and the clock is ticking. In the meantime I have lots to keep me busy, including house guests, school committee meetings, and Halloween!!!
