GOAL!

Look what I found yesterday at a garage sale in our neighborhood?!

Andrew, Becca, and Elizabeth are excited to have the "real" soccer goal in their backyard BUT, I cannot wait to see Eyob and Biruk's face! Soccer is HUGE in Ethiopia and I just love how God provided something so small...like a used soccer goal (for $5!!)....to hopefully help ease the adjustment to their life with us.

Command Central

it looks quite disorganized doesn't it?!
Actually it's not -on the bed are the boys' clothes -washed and ready to be packed...the laundry basket in the foreground is full of snacks and meds we're taking over...

AND
the 2 tubs and duffel are already packed to their weight limit -
you're looking at 150 pounds of donations going over with us -clothes, formula, vitamins, etc.

We will still have almost a whole 'nother suitcase of donations to pack -then hopefully our measely items will fit in our 2 carry-ons and a checked bag!

It's so exciting. I can't wait to meet your sons. You'll have to bring all your kids over to our splash pad for some fun in the water after they get settled in.

Can't believe your trip is almost here! I'm so excited for you all! The prayers are continuing though we haven't had time to stay in touch lately.
