The mail service is pretty dependable but I think it takes letters awhile to be delivered. This will be my address during training, the first 3 months, and then it will change. I will update the new address when I get it.
I leave tomorrow morning for Washington, DC for orientation and then Wednesday morning, early, we all leave for Managua. I'll have a short layover in Miami.
All three of my sister, my brothers in law, and nieces and nephews came over today. Wish you cold have been here Katie. It was great. It was 68 degrees outside we ate outside while all the kids played in the yard. Janna, my sister, made some great brownies and another dessert, I don't know what it's called, that was very good. We had Dinglewood chili , it's a Columbus thing, and hot dogs. That's what I wanted for my last supper. It was delicious. I guess I'm all packed, thanks to my sisters, and ready to go but I feel like I'm forgetting everything. I got a great Calender from Kristi that she made with personalized dates and pictures of our family. I gave my nieces and nephew presents and things to hold on for me until I get back...Haley and Jackson. I told Janna to tell Caroline, her 8 month old girl, stories about me until I get back. We'll see. The picture above is my niece Taylor and I. I gave her a heart charm necklace with her initials on it. I'm really going to miss my family.

Have Fun Shaun and be Careful. Jack Jack and Caralou want their uncle Shaunie home in one piece. I talked with a guy at church tonight and he told me he joined the Peace Corps and went to Costa Rica and Columbia. He said it was awesome. He went on and on about how great of an experience it was. He said Nicaragua is fairly safe and you should be okay. The mother in me is already worring and I have a feeling it will be a long 2 years if we do not know that you are safe. RELAX and try to enjoy every moment.
Love,
Janna
