4 more sleeps

Ever since I was about 15 or 16 I wanted to go on a mission trip with Kelly Putty, in 4 days that dream is coming true. I still can not believe that I am actually going! After getting the shots in Paducah and almost passing out on the way home I thought the 21st of June would never come. This weekend with the help of my mom I packed to army duffel bags full of donations for the children in Africa. I am so thankful for the people in Hopkinsville that donated items like clothing, bows, soccer jerseys, and soccer balls. I wish I could take it all, but sadly I could only take two 50 pound army bags, and mine don't even weigh 50 pounds because they are filled to the brim and only weigh around 20 pounds. 
This will be my main way of communication in Ethiopia besides text messages, I have also linked Kelly's blog on the my blog list. This is where you can usually find out what we did ever day! 

Blessings-
Maggie
