If it's been the same with most of you, this summer has flown by!
Now that our car is officially packed, we have an itinerary:
Tuesday, August 28th: leave Ohio and arrive in Knoxville, Tennessee for my brother's graduation from an Air Force training he's been in for the past 6 weeks
(5 hours).
Wednesday, August 29th: leave Knoxville and arrive in Little Rock, Arkansas. On our drive there, we plan to meet up with our friend Jenn who is moving to Mexico at the same time as us. Know anyone who lives in the Little Rock area? (8.5 hours)
Thursday, August 30th: leave Little Rock and arrive in Houston, Texas, where we will hopefully finish up another step of our visa process. We have some friends in Houston who are willing to let us bombard their place for the evening as well, so that will be nice to catch up with them and get a good night's rest (7.5 hours)
Friday, August 31st: stay in Houston as we do visa work. Another friend from Missouri who's also moving to Mexico at the same time will be meeting us in Houston.
Saturday, September 1st: leave Houston and arrive in Harlingen, Texas where we have friends who are letting us stay at their place for the evening (5.5 hours)
Sunday, September 2nd: leave Harlingen and arrive in Monterrey, Mexico! Staff from Back2Back will meet us in McAllen, Texas, where we will then all caravan together over the border and arrive at Back2Back's campus (3.5 hours).

Please pray for our drive towards Mexico and for a smooth border crossing as well. It will be an adventure-filled journey! Once we get to Mexico, we'll update everyone on the road trip and what it looks like as we get settled in.
We're filled with so many emotions right now, but we are extremely excited for this opportunity and what God has in store... We are so grateful for your partnership of support and prayer! We couldn't be doing this without you.
