Orientation and another trip to Target

We better leave for Guatemala soon or I'm going to think of something else I left behind and I might need while I'm gone! It's been a little over 24 hours since all of us interns have met and we've already bonded over two shopping trips to Target. In the morning we're hitting up the Goodwill down the road, and I wouldn't be surprised if we hit the Targ once more. Our team of awesome interns includes: Kaysey, Rachel, Marianna and myself down in Guatemala, and Anda who interned last year at the OH office in Miami. Exciting news: the Heat won the NBA finals so everyone is sporting their Heat jerseys. We slept quite comfortably through the fireworks! What's even more exciting is that we have discussed what areas we'll be working in this summer. I recognized some names on our list, so I know there will be some familiar faces waiting in San Juan. I've got my Spanish/English phrases card to study on the plane over so I can be ready to chat with those little ones! The team from Wauchula going to the Dominican Republic with Orphan's Heart is here in Miami too. It was great to see them before they head out early in the am- 4:30 to be exact. Pray for them to get rest and for safe travels. We'll be meeting up with our team in Antigua tomorrow afternoon/evening. Keep us all in your prayers!

  1. So it's July 4th here and everyone is celebrating Independance Day! I have been in my pj's all day (well, until 4:30pm when I had to go get dinner) and so I decided to finally take the time to read your blog. I usually read from top to bottom, but realized I should probably start from the beginning and read from bottom to top. Jess left this morning for Africa and so with both of you gone I just don't know what I'll do with myself?!?! I guess I'll just wait for y'all to return.
