We were sweatin...

it out over here waiting on enough funds to come in so we could purchase the airline tickets. Our travel agent lady said that the quoted price could be held until the end of the month. We were encouraged to go and check the PO box for Pump (since it is only checked once a week). I went down there today and there it was, the check we have been waiting on! I called down to the travel agent lady and found out that she is on vacation, so I had to speak with someone different. That turned out to be a blessing because she gave me a lot more information than I had been getting from the original lady. I told her we were ready to pay for the tickets and she confirmed our reservation for us. Now all we have to do is send the check to pay for it.

On a slightly different note, I am not sure if i have mentioned this before, but we have underestimated our budget for this trip. There were a few expenses that we thought would be much lower than they turned out to be. We are hoping to raise an extra $1000 to help cover those extra expenses. It is not that much of an increase, I have faith that God will provide what we need one way or another!

We feel so blessed and supported by everyone who has taken a part in helping us reach several of our financial goals. We are not there yet, but definitely a lot closer than yesterday!
