We're Leaving on a Jet Plane

This is our email sharing our airline information...We will be leaving Oct. 16 ( my b-day) for Ghana. I have been waiting for a long time to share this news....We decided to travel making 2 trips for our adoption. We have felt the need to make these 2 trips and the first one is in less than 2 weeks to visit with our girls as well as to take over some much needed supplies for the school that the kids are at. Here is a list of the supplies needed and if anyone wishes to join us in collecting them we would love to bless these children who are in such poverty and need.....

School workbooks_ I have asked Sams Club if they would donate. Shoes, sandals and kids underwear, educational games for kids, treated mosquito nets and mosquito killer spray, kid's medicine, canned fish and can powdered milk are just some of what we are collecting. Also we are collecting money from donors to give to the foundation to help the children. Here is the link to their site and they can also be found on face book. http://www.ujimacare.org/index.html

I will be sharing more later about our trip but right now I have been busy all day gathering and making plans for our travel.
