the countdown is on!

so, i just got an email with the countdown on the days till we are in kenya.... 43 days, just 43 days away :) i guess i better get boogying on getting my shots, eh?! i am such a procrastinator! i will make that call today to get them scheduled. i am hoping to get the least amount of shots as possible. my friend just had over $400 worth of shots for our trip. a big ugh!

i was just gone for a girls weekend away with my sisters and a couple friends and it was only 4 days away. i was tucking shea in that nite i got back and she told me, " you were gone for a long time, mommy... but you will be gone even longer when you go to africa. right mommy?" she was almost about to cry :( that right there is going to be the hard part for me. i know they will be in great hands though while i am gone. victor will be with them as well as his parents. they are coming in from birmingham to help out while victor will be working that week. the kids absolutely love them ( & visa versa, of course!)

we will be having a meeting this week to discuss our big yard sale on june 6th. we are asking our neighbors, friends and family to do some spring cleaning .... any donations will be greatly appreciated!! we are hoping this will be a huge success. if you are reading this... you should come on out for it. it is june 6th at the brandon oaks clubhouse from 7-11 a.m. and then lunch and bounce house afterwards. all profits will be divided amoung the kenya team for our trip.
come on out! let me know too if you have any "junk" you want to get off your hands to donate to our cause :)
