Packing for Benin :)

15 days until I leave for Benin, Africa!!! Words can't express how excited I am! Packing in just two suitcases and a carry-on is really difficult for me!!! I seem to pack more than I need...what girl doesn't? Hahaha Time seems to be moving super fast...the family is having a going away party for me this Saturday from 4pm-ALL NIGHT!! That is going to be a great night! Can't wait!! I have a great family and a wonderful group of friends!!! :) I will make sure I get everyone my mailing address so I can get some care packages and letters...hint hint!! I am going to enjoy these last couple weeks in the United States and prepare my mind for the next 27 months in Benin!
