Update

We have had several people ask us for an update, so here is what we have been up to this week.
 On Thursday, my coworkers threw me a going away party. It was so sweet! These signs are adorable! They had cupcakes with maps cut into hearts! They even gave me a tub filled with some necessities... deodorant, candles, and sunscreen :)
This past Friday was my last day at school. We had Multicultural day where families from our school represented the  continent they are from. It was so neat. I got to represent Africa. It was very special sharing with the kids where I was moving and the people I would be working with. My sweet friend Erica made this beautiful Africa sign!I will definitely miss my students and coworkers!

On Saturday we had a garage sale to sell the rest of our furniture and belongings we aren't taking to Africa. It was a very cold day, but God definitely blessed us! My friend Jordan, let us have the yard sale at her house. She was such a blessing bringing us coffee and hot soup! We sold almost every single item! IT WAS AMAZING! It is very nice to have those items gone.

Yesterday and today Titus, my mom and I  packed items for our container to send to Africa. We are taking a U-Haul tomorrow to Arkansas. We will spend the next few days packing and loading our container. It will leave on Thursday. We are very excited to get one step closer to Africa. We will post before and after photos soon of all our packing :)

We have had a busy few days! I promise to update again soon.
