Adventures Starts in 1 Day

So today is the day before we go to Florida to visit my family for a few days. Then the real adventure begins. On Sunday at 10pm Justin and I are flying to Santa Cruz, Bolivia. We will be staying at the D.O's house for that day and the next day we will be flying to Tarija. We will stay with the Marzdens until the next Sunday. On that Sunday we will be able to go to the Special Assembly day there in Tarija. Then on Sunday night we will leave for Santa Cruz and stay at the Bethel Home until Tuesday morning. That is the end of our trip, that's when the real work begins. Simplifying AGAIN and getting all our paperwork together in order to get our residents visas, and making a decision where we end up living. I can't wait. :D

Adventures Begin

Well I haven't updated the site in awhile so I figured today was the day. So next week starts our adventure to Bolivia. We are so excited and can not wait to meet all of our brothers and sisters down there. We leave May 13th and fly to Florida to spend some much needed time with my family. Then on Sunday May 16th Justin and I fly out from Miami to Bolivia. It is about a 7 hour flight, not to bad. I am glad that we are flying through the night that will make it a lot easier. I am excited too because I put together small gift bags for the children. I put a packet of crayons, a stencil bookmark, different kinds of stickers, a bouncy ball, and candy. I put some of my favorite candies like a ring pop, smarties, tootsie rolls and laffy taffy. I can not wait to share with you all all of our experiences down there.

Also we figured out when we are going to be leaving to live in Bolivia for good. When we come back we will be buying our plane tickets for the middle to end of October. We are very happy and thank Jehovah so very much for his support and help throughout this time in our lives.

As far as this weekend, we are driving to Ohio to see our friend Amy get married. We are very excited and can not wait to see them. It will also be nice to see Justin's mom before we leave on our vacation next week.

Let the vacationing begin.....
