From Daddy
By Mike Nine
I just wanted to let everyone know that we still need about $$8,784.13 until we are fully funded to bring our boys home... We have saved and raised $6,800 from donations, garage sales, fundraisers and money that we have set aside each week. So we need your help to raise the last $$8,784.13. Anything you can give helps whether it is $5 or $1,000 every little bit helps. And just think you are helping to bring these 2 little boys who have never know what it is like to be loved my a dad, mom, brothers, sisters, grandparents, aunts/uncles and cousins home to that unconditional love...
I know some of you don't understand why we would travel to Bulgaria to adopt 2 boys with Down Syndrome and severely delayed.. I don't completely understand it either but I do know God spoke to Katrina and I to step out in faith and take these two boys that were given up by their parents because they were different. But God doesn't see them any differently than he sees us and he loves them just like he loves you and I.
They are my boys no matter what their physical issues are and I love them with all of my heart just like my other 8 kids.... They are going to be a blessing in our lives and God is going to use them to touch people just like he has used Vahnya and Livy..
Who would have thought that when Katrina and I got married 22 years that God had this wonderful plan in place for our lives.

we are here
We are here,it is so pretty.it was a long flight we are tired but got some good sleep last night and are going to be picked up to go to sebastians city at 11:00 so excited.
we went to the mall to exchange money.I have never seen such a huge mall and it had in it a store that was like a walmart it even had some of the same things in it like the shoes I just got from our walmart back home not sure the name of this place but it everything if I had known that I would have just waited till we got here to buy our shampoos and stuff. we got some crackers and some water.
Our driver is Fullip he is a young guy only 20 reminds me of Josh. He is a sweet kid and think we are going to get along great with him,he will go with us to each visit and translate for us he even stays in the same hotel with us so if we need him he is always there.
Can't wait to see our little guy,not sure if we get to see him today or not.
here are a few pictures it is so pretty here.
