Shoes and lots of things to bring to Guatemala!!!

We have been busy collecting donations, shopping and packing for our fourth trip to  Guatemala.  Some teachers from Sunrise Park gave us more donations and we have been sorting them.  There are so many nice things that are going to make people happy in Guatemala. We are mainly bringing general donations and a few small gifts for some families we know and the people that work for Mayan Families. We are also bringing some money to buy food and beds while we are there.


 Titi decided to bring collars, leashes and flea shampoo for the dogs that are rescued by Mayan Families.

 We brought lots of shoes that we collected these past weeks.  I also got some flip flops at Wal Mart and they were a hit.  Next year I need to bring more.
 We travelled with Taca Airlines and they allowed us 2 bags per person plus a carry-on and a small bag.  The 8 big bags contained donations and gifts and we put our clothes in the carry-on bags. I packed and repacked many times to have 50 lbs. in each bag.

Lisa Goodman and her family gave us lots of great shoes for Guatemala!!!  Some of them are new!  We are very thankful to them.
