Only 4 Sleeps left !!!
Hard to believe in 5 days I will be in Ethiopia !!!!
The organization we are going on this expedition with really wanted us to bring as many shoes for the children in our school as we could... so with the money that we had left over to use on donation we decided to buy new sneakers for the children in Ethiopia.
I went to Wal Mart as Julie and I had seen some on clearance for $5 a pair.. however this was my lucky day and someone was watching out for us and these children as the same sneakers were ALL DISCOUNTED to $3 !!!!!!!! Amazing huh...
So I bought all they had at BOTH Wal Marts..... 33 pairs of new sneakers that are really nice....
Now I have to find room to pack in our stuff !!
