Time flies, doesn't it?

Eleven days from now, I will be in Miami, beginning training for our trip to Panama. I am incredibly excited!

Many, many things have happened since I last posted about the trip. 

I finished paying for the trip (Yay!) with help from Dad. (Thanks, Dad!).

Our packing list was sent out! Mine is nearly six pages this year, because I am going on the extended trip. We have been shopping a lot this month, picking everything up and making sure that I have everything I need. We received our costume assignments as well - I was assigned to bring the costume of a China Doll. That doesn't necessarily mean that I'll be the China doll in our drama - once we're in Miami, we'll have drama tryouts and our leaders will decide who should play which part, and we'll switch costumes after that.


T-shirts for our trip came in the mail. We'll be wearing these to travel to Miami, and again when we travel to Panama. They are a light green color... almost minty. It is hard to tell from the pictures. :)

Team lists were eagerly awaited, and finally arrived the beginning of this month. I am on Team 6! I have already contacted some people on our team, and everyone is great. I am excited to be able to meet everyone when we arrive in Miami.

I started packing yesterday, and I am a little overwhelmed with the idea of having to pack for three weeks. I am fairly sure that everything I need will fit in my suitcase, and I have been working out various ways to pack things for a few weeks now, so it should all work out eventually.

That's about it for updates right now. The rest of this week and all of next will be left to finish packing and finalizing little details. I am so excited to be going to Panama, and I can't wait to see all of what God is going to do while we are there.

I will try to update once or twice more before I leave, and I will definitely try to update while I am on the trip if I can.

Thank you, everyone reading this, for your support. You are so important to me, and I couldn't be going on this trip without you!
