africa here we come

today is the day!
we leave in 45 mins. for the airport.
we also were notified that british airways (which we're taking all the way to Uganda) is on strike. so.....our flight schedule has changed a bit. we're flying to London and then to South Africa and then up to Uganda. please be praying for us & that we eventually get to our destination! :)
we send love and thanks to all of you who have supported us along the way.
we will hopefully be updated our blog as soon as we can.

time keeps ticking

time has a way of flying when you are running around.
but thankfully chris & i have been blessed with great friends & family who have helped us along the way.
we are eagerly awaiting our flight out on this wednesday! we still have lots to pack & accomplish before that but i am hopeful that the Lord will grant us grace and see us through this hectic time.

we had an awesome time at our going-away party this past Saturday. thank you to everyone who came out.

we are very blessed with a solid support system here in colorado & iowa. :)


love to all of you!

leaving on a jet plane

We are leaving in 19 days! We're super pumped & quickly approaching a very busy time getting ready, packing up our apt., hopefully selling our van, & most importantly packing for Africa!
