greece. in 38 minutes.

it's that time again.  spring break.

i am meeting my team to head to the airport in a little over half an hour.  it's been a long road to get to today.  but it's here!  the bags are packed.  money is in the bank.  passports in hand.  we're ready to go.  i'm so excited to be back in the city that really did capture my heart and change the way i see the world.  i would appreciate your prayers as we are gone for the next 10 days.  there is a lot of spiritual heaviness to ward off, and the occasional crazy down in omonia!  

i'll let you know how the trip goes, although i am sure it will be awesome!

  

provisions.

i'm learning to notice the Lord's provisions in the little things.  and the big things, too. fundraising for the World Race is going well.  we still have a long way to go, but the Lord has been showing Himself very, very faithful.  greece in t-minus 3 days.  oh my gosh!  i am so, so excited.  i cannot even hardly contain myself.  it's really putting a damper on my productivity. but, i am willing to make that sacrifice.  i'm posting a video below of my wonderful cousins.  amy and i babysat them on saturday night.  i've learned that allowing them to make videos of themselves is a great way to keep them occupied.  ethan has also taken a liking to my good friend julie, who is out in california.  so, we make her videos when i babysit.  it's a win-win for all.  my favorite part is when hannah, who is only 2 1/2, says "are you kiddin' me, ashley?"  they are just precious.  what joy they provide me.  i hope you enjoy it as much as i do!

bleh.

that's how i feel.
