Not Worthy!!

Brandon and I just do not think we are worthy of the abundant blessings we have found in our family and friends. We had our one and only shower today. We asked our "peeps" to plan it this way because we knew that there would not be much time to do much more. We were HEAVILY showered by a combination of the special people in our lives!! Every gift...right down to the cards, bags, & thought put into it was SO perfect!! Today was a very special day for us. We left with our hearts overflowing and with gratitude that is pretty well indescribable!
These special someones...


Threw a magnificent shower for us!!!





And this is pretty much how the gift opening session went...I REALLY TRULY loved every single thing and made sure to let everyone know why!!



Not a thing we'll need to take back with the exception of one duplicate!! & that's ok because there are a few small things we still need!!

We have a few busy days ahead as we prepare to take off on Thursday, but we absolutely CAN.NOT.WAIT!!!!!

Update on Harrison- They are leaning towards a strong asthma attack as the culprit of his hospitalization! They have put him on some strong meds/breathing treatments and it looks like he'll be released in a day or so. They also said he'll be getting the flu shot Friday (the day before we hold him first) and that we might expect him to be a little less happy than usual. They took him last week but that was when they decided to admit him. He has to have one before coming to the U.S! At least we are mentally prepared to roll with the punches!!

I have been reading your blog for a while. Although I don't know you personally, I am SO excited for you. Looks like Harrison will be one BLESSED little boy. I will be praying that all goes smoothly.
God Bless!
