McKenzie Travels: Bringing ShiYang Home!!!

About me

Location	Chicago Area, Illinois, United States
Introduction	Since the majority of you reading this, already know our adoption background, I'll make this brief (which is hard for me)... We officially began our adoption process in September 2008 yet, it has "unoffically" been brewing for almost 20 years! Mike and I have always wanted to adopt a child and low and behold, here we are. After a mountain of paperwork, soul-searching, numerous trips for Linda to get fingerprinted, home renovations, adoption classes and many funny/wonderful discussions with our 3 children, we decided to take the plunge. We are very excited to welcome ShiYang (new name to be announced soon) into our family. I am BRAND NEW to blogging and am a bit sceptical but in an effort to make my life easier, I found this to be the best way to share our exciting journey to China to pick up ShiYang. So, enjoy!!!
