Here's to our last night in America! For a while at least.

It's midnight: Nathan is making balloon animals, while Leah single-handedly cleans out the leftovers in the fridge by eating mad amounts of sweet potato casserole. We're ready!

We are going to be up at the crack of ridiculous in the morning to finish packing, and then head out to buy the few things that eluded our first 2 Wal-Mart runs. We meet our team at 11:00 a.m. to load up and head out to Dulles Int'l Airport. Our flight to London takes off at 6:50 pm.

Nothing of great spiritual significance since it's 2 a.m.
Let's save the good stuff for tomorrow. Goodnight!

We should be packed.

We leave tomorrow afternoon for Romania. Are we packed yet? Of course not. It's going to be a long night! On a fun note, I (Leah) went to the dentist this morning (that's not the fun part!) and found out my dentist is Romanian! She said we will love her country and that she is very jealous :) Thanks for your prayers as we are headed over there, we are so excited to see what God is going to do! And we'll keep ya posted!

One week and counting...

We had dinner tonight with one of my favorite couples from our church, who suggested that we journal every day while in Romania about all the details. I loved that idea, and since there are so many people we love dearly back home who are curious about what we are up to, I decided to make it into a public blog. Welcome to our journal.

disclaimer: We've been told we will be able to get internet access, so we will update every day that we can with pictures and stories of what's going on! If you don't hear from us for 11 days straight, assume we were not able to secure internet access, and wait with great expectations for pictures and video when we come home!
