One Week -- Packing continues!

One week from today, we take off!
We've been collecting suitcases from ARC (local thrift store) on half-off days.  We have 10, mis-matched, floral (or tweed), 80's suitcases!  None of the suitcases were more than $4.00!!  Each day we work on one more -- packing it to the perfect 50 lbs ....maybe trying to steal one or two free ounces :)
The only complete disaster we've had is the huge, hard shell (the only hard shell), olive green (my favorite) suitcase that had a combination lock.  It was unlocked when we bought it and we thought it would stay that way, but somehow...it has locked.  What is the 3-number code?  Or...will this suitcase go back to ARC...untouched?!
Anyway, the packing continues.  How exciting!

We are leaving the country in a few weeks.

We are trusting that God is going before us and will see us through.
