Oh my word. The day after tomorrow. That is amazing to me. Wow. I'm so over-the-top excited. There are many reasons.
I get to see my friends Carey and Amy for 11 days straight. I hadn't really thought about that fact too much until just recently that we are going to have such cool memories to add to our times together.
Anybody that knows me, knows that I love to go. I have always loved to travel. Even as a little girl. My mom loves to tell the story of when I was about 3, I was going on a road trip to Florida with my grandparents. I was packed and ready, waiting in the driveway at like 3am to be picked up. I get like that anytime I travel. Except now, I usually pack the night before (which drives some certain friends crazy that I wait until the last possible moment!) I told my dad this morning that I realized I hadn't traveled internationally in 3 years and I'm really looking forward to that part of it as well.
And, obviously, God got me to this point. My knee has been doing pretty good here recently (thank you God and Dr Rosen!) God has provided every dime that I've needed/wanted for this trip (including spending $$ and to cover Derby's kennel expense). He just continues to lavish blessing on to this daughter . . . I remain overwhelmed!
To think that the day after tomorrow will be the day I leave for the airport to head to the Land that God has promised His children . . . again, it's just overwhelming.
FYI: I've had a couple people ask the time difference, here's a link to show you the time in Jersalem with Eastern and Central time zones to compare.

If it's noon in Jerusalem, then it's 6am EDT and 5am CDT. But after time changes this weekend, then when it's noon in Jerusalem, it'll be 5am EST and 4am CST.
