Ops! Not yet…leaving on a jet plane that is. Guess what though!?! I got my backpack and mess kit and sleeping bag and some clothes for the trip!! I’m just a little excited. Would it be weird if I told you that I wear my backpack around my house sometimes?…while in my sleeping bag…hopping around? Just kidding about the sleeping bag part. But I do wear my backpack around and imagine in my mind that I’m hiking through Peru. Don’t judge me.
Guess what else? God is kicking butt with fundraising lately! Every day I sell some Threads of Hope bracelets or get a check in the mail from someone. I still have a lot to go but God’s got everything under control! These are some interesting fundraising ideas that my friends and I have had:
Kissing booth (don’t worry…we threw that one out fast).
Shave it or save it (my hair that is).
Taking all the money that I have raised thus far and spending it on lottery tickets and/or going to a casino (this one is still up in the air).
Making a rap/dance to sell shirts and bracelets and hopefully becoming famous via YouTube.
Oh…there’s more…but these were just the “best” ones.
Do you have any ridiculous/awesome fundraising ideas?
JANUARY 6th is right around the corner! Every day is such an emotional roller coaster. One minute I am so excited and happy about going and this trip and the next minute I’m crying to my friend about missing her wedding. I was never an emotional gal until this darn trip came along! I am so beyond stoked to be able to do this with my life, I am so beyond stoked that God is using me and using others to bless me thoughout this process. My Pappa is so good!
