Ready, Set, GO!!

Hi guys! This is my first ever blog, and I haven't learned how to load pictures yet, but I will soon. :)

We are almost ready to leave for Cebu! It's been about a year and a half since we first applied at AGWM, and we have been raising funds since January. God has blessed us in so many ways-- I can't begin to describe how certain I am that this is His plan for our family right now.

Our house is filled with boxes in 3 categories: yard sale, store, and stay (which actually just means move to another house for another month or so). Our house is scheduled to close November 1, then we will move into a friend's empty house until we are ready to get on the airplane! We can buy our tickets when our funds are 100% raised, our visas are approved, and our house deal goes through. These three things should all happen around the same time; isn't it funny how God works things out that way?

The kids are impressing me with how well they understand what's happening. We play a game called "What fits in a suitcase?", and they are masters! They are very excited about getting to sleep in bunk beds in the Philippines. :)

God, thank You for directing our steps. We will continue to trust in You on this journey.
