Our trip is becoming ever closer now. We will spend one week in Chicago before we fly out for Guatemala. That week we will be working a big tradeshow for my job. My last day of work will September 18 and we will fly out from Chicago on September 19.
We are very busy trying to get last minute things arranged like, oh crap, where are our passports and oh, crap, we did arrange a dog sitter, right? Michael has officially had his last day at Ray's trash so he is spending a lot of his time tying up those loose ends along with a small remodel job he has coming up as well.
While we are in Guatemala, we are going to visit with some missionaries along do some work with the orphanges in Antigua. Many people in Guatemala are very poor. It has been recommended to us to take lots of small trinket type gifts for the kids. We are going to be taking a suitcase full of goodies to these precious kids. We are extending the opportunity to any of you who would like to donate any treats for us to take. Suggestions inlcude, bubbles, balloons, individually wrapped candies, small toys from the dollar store, etc. If you would like to send some treats for the kids, please let us know and we will pick them up from you before we leave. Our last day in Indianapolis will be September 10.
