Packing!

Although our trip is over a month away, the packing starts way before the trip! Besides packing our clothes and all our sterile supplies, scrubs,etc. most of our suitcase is filled with items for the children and the Dominican people. People have already donated reader glasses for our eye clinic. Within the next few weeks we will purchase coloring books, candy, toothbrushes (as the kids requested these last year), small toys, and whatever else we can fit in our bags. This is going to be another amazing trip!

Getting ready for the DR

It is approx 6 weeks to take off for Renee and Beth to Samana, Dominican Republic. Our second annual journey for a medical mission. This year we are being joined by my younger son, DJ, and a fellow Tech Stephanie. We are getting excited and looking forward to the trip. We are in the process of getting our sterile supplies together. Shipped a 40 lb box of stuff to DJ last week.
