Heading Home...

Hello!

Hard to believe that I have been here 4 months and 4 days! Leaving to go back home to the States tomorrow morning!! I spent yesterday packing up and watching Christmas movies by the fire. (My family's fireplace is broken so I'm trying to enjoy having one while I can)

Today I did last minute things in the office to prepare for the holiday season when I'm away. Had a couple of meetings to make sure everything would be taken care of and I definitely feel better now having done that :)

After work I headed over to my AAB site to visit Mr. McCrae and a couple other ladies who weren't there this past weekend to say goodbye. So glad they were all home and I had a lovely visit with each! Did some last minute shopping for gifts for friends and family (mostly sweets) and finished packing last minute items.

I'm at Lynsey's house now. Eating some chicken curry and watching TV. Stephen just weighed my bag and I do believe that it's exactly 50lbs. (Crossing my fingers its not over!)

Heading to bed here shortly! Waking up before 5am to drive to Dublin! Get to spend the day in Newark with the longest 7 hour layover ever! (Good thing my favorite hobby is people watching!)

The past 4 months have been by far the hardest and most stretching four months in my life - but I have never been more challenged in exercising faith and trust in the Lord then I have and I am so excited to see God continue to move in this amazing country! Ready though for a much needed holiday and visit with my family! I wont be writing while I'm home - so this is goodbye until mid January.
I pray you all have a wonderful Christmas that carries into the new year!

xoxo
Julie
