Boarding

The team is finally together. We're boarding now. I just had coffee which decreases the chances of sleeping but I'm still hoping to sleep most of the 13.5 hour flight!

It is getting more and more exciting!!!

On the move

I have been horrible at blogging. Ryan bought me an iPod touch for Christmas and i hardly sit in front of the computer at home these days.

A quick update is in order.

We have started our next journey to Ethiopia. We're in Minneapolis for the night. Tomorrow, those of us from the Midwest fly to Washington DC to met the rest of our team (-1). We'll stay overnight there before our 13.5 hour flight to Ethiopia. While there, we'll be back in Shanto, then to Awassa, and Dale before going back to Addis.

Ryan will be treating livestock for the widows plus livestock in the community. I am eager to check in on all those I consider friends there... My crops ladies, my little buddies and the teenage girls.

I am so thankful to be part of this team. I am also very thankful for Ryan and his willingness to take part too and that he encourages me to be involved too. Without our friends taking care of our kids we wouldn't be able to do this so I'm thankful for each if them too!
