I know I've mentioned that I'm excited for my mission. But today it got a little more real that I am actually LEAVING.
Why? My luggage is finally here!
A huge thanks to my aunt for this much needed early birthday/going away present.
I never thought I'd be so excited about luggage.
Does this mean I'm an adult? No, it's probably just a missionary thing.
Either way, I am borderline giddy at the fact I have these two brand new beauties to carry all of my belongings during my 18 month adventure.
Now I know I don't leave for another 21 days but I couldn't help but start to pack. Just little things, of course. Like my winter coats... and some shoes... and jammies... and, uh, maybe a few pairs of socks, a couple scarves, and tights... and hangers. I just had to! I can't wait to fill these bags with all the other prizes my family has helped me collect for the mish. I'm so stinking excited to be a missionary that I can barely stand it!
These two (not so) little bags are going to accompany me to Mexico, then to Redlands, then wherever the Lord and my mission president see fit. They will be the only constant "home" for all my possessions for the next 18 months.
Boy, if these bags could talk!
Just a few more things left to do and I'm ready to go!
