Packing, packing, and more packing

I think we are finally almost done packing. The only thing left to pack is a few electronics like video games and Ipods. Shawn has a few more movies to download and then they can go into the backpacks. Our paperwork is all collected, brand new money ordered and received, clothes washed and packed, and all other things squashed into the suitcases. I know we packed a lot more than we need but I don't know what I could have left out.

This is the final school day for the kids. Madelyn already has her homework and has started working on it. Marshall should get all his today. They should have plenty of time on the flights to finish up.

Tonight we hope to get to bed early. We will need to be at the airport tomorrow morning by 6:00. Grandma Faye is taking us to the airport so we won't have to worry about long-term parking.

This will be my last post from Wichita before leaving. I will try to post tomorrow from Chicago and then on Friday from Beijing when we make it to our hotel room. I'm hoping the internet service there doesn't cause us any problems.

Please pray for us while we are on this trip. Especially for our health and safety. Also, pray for Raegan. This will be such a huge change for her. We are hoping the transition will be an easy one for her.
