6 Weeks Out

Welcome to our blog! To help keep friends and family updated on our trip, we've created this blog to share our thoughts and pics of our upcoming trip.

I also thought I would post our latest list of supplies: we are slowly but surely filling up our Rubbermaid containers to take hundreds of pounds to Africa with us.

Here's the latest list:
Medical Needs:
Bandaids and other general first aid supplies
Childrens Acetaminophen, Ibuprofen, and Benadryl

Preschool supplies: crafts, workbooks, coloring books, crayons, washable markers, etc.
