The "Official" day..........Donei Michael Gouge

Picture with the Judge who did our court hearing

These days are getting away from me and I realize I haven't written on our blog for a few days..........

Donei is now "officially" our son by Brazilian requirements and we signed papers after our court hearing yesterday to make him now Donei Michael Gouge :))
Happy Day for Steve and I! It was a long year and a half and we have called him our son for the last 16 months.
We are packing up here at CLM today and getting ready to leave for Curitiba by bus tomorrow around noon. The bus will be around 4-5 hours traveling until we reach our destination. We will be in Curitiba until next Tuesday the 31st~
Mike and Mary will be coming to Curitiba on Saturday to Sunday to hang with us one last time until we have to say good bye to the Cochran's. Not looking forward to saying good bye to them because we don't know when the next time we will see them will be~ :(

Tonight we are taking out Rumolo and Aline for dinner with us. They are Donei's closest friends here and we thought it would be nice to have one last dinner with him to say good bye.
