Africa- EVE


Well guys, tomorrow is the day. Although as I'm writing this it's Saturday morning so I guess TODAY is really the day. It is here. I am overwhelmed by all the love and support we have experienced as we embark upon this adventure. In fact, my parents came all the way from Texas this week to hang out with us before we leave and my GRANDPARENTS did too - and surprised us!
we went to Corky's!

We taught Nanny about Settlers of Cattan

It was PawPaw's first time in Memphis!!


It's been so fun, I don't want it to end. But alas, moving on to other endeavors.

Many people have asked about our internet sources there and the truth is - we don't know much. We know we have SOME internet access but we do not know to what extent. Hopefully I will blog as often as possible.

So we were pretty excited about getting ready to leave

.... but Ollie didn't understand.

My beautiful parents are watching him while we're gone. 



So here is what's going on in the next two days....

12:41 Pm Saturday-  Leave for Ghana and have layovers in Orlando and NY.

1:50 pm Sunday  (Ghana time) - Land in Accra, Ghana!! We are 5 hours ahead I believe. So this would be like 9:00 am your time. As you're getting ready for church say a little prayer that we have safe travels.

2:00 PM Sunday- Someone is picking us up from the airport and taking us to The Village of Hope. It's about a 3-4 hour drive but according to D should only take 30 minutes... but there are a lot of potholes??

I honestly cannot wait to see this place. Everyone that goes comes back in love and well blessed. God is so cool - you go to bless and you get blessed. So cool.

Monday morning- should start working in the clinic. Hopefully my jet lag won't be so bad :) I'm not sure when D will start teaching but I'm going to guess asap.
