It’s almost time!!! We have spent what seems like FOREVER looking forward to this initial trip to Uganda. I can’t believe that in 4 short days we will be experiencing it for ourselves! I’ve been looking forward to lots of things as these days have been approaching.

-Traveling with my husband….just us! I can’t even wait!!!
-Finding out what education will look like for our girls or at least seeing the options
-Finding out what medical care will look like for our family. Hopefully putting some worries to rest.
-Enjoying the food, I hear it’s pretty awesome! I’ve GOT to find myself a Ugandan pineapple!
-Experiencing a worship service with my sister
-Watching my sister ‘in action’ as she does her thing
-Meeting my sister’s friends, especially Manuela!
-Getting to see the home we will be living in when we move
-Meeting the Bogans
-Getting a little taste of what life will be like. How it will be different or simillar to life here
-Having the experience of having been in Uganda and looking forward to going back again
-Seeing the sights, sounds and smells of this place I’ve heard so much about!
-Even though it won’t be that enjoyable, I am looking forward to seeing the needs of Uganda and getting to help do something about it.

I hope you share in my excitement and will ‘follow” us along as we being this journey! Please pray for us as we prepare to leave for two weeks. Pray for travel graces, that we will have a safe and productive trip and that all of our luggage gets to where it’s supposed to go. Also, please pray for us as parents. We’ve never been away from our girls for this long before. It’s not going to be easy being away from our girls for that long! Hopefully all of us will be busy enough that the time will pass quickly! We appreciate your prayers!
