After months of planning, meeting, and praying, the time has come for us to leave for Costa Rica! Tonight at 6:00pm we met at Holland Christian High School. There we loaded two mini vans with 9 soccer players, 2 coaches, and lots of luggage. We also got a chance to pray for our trip with family and friends. After many hugs and goodbyes, we were on the road...

We safely made it to our hotel in Chicago at 9:30pm local time. Tomorrow we will be waking up bright and early. Our shuttle bus to O'Hare Airport leaves at 4:55am and our flight is at 7:10am. Tomorrow will be a big day of travel!

Thank you so much for all the prayers and support we have already received. We feel so blessed to have this opportunity to go to Costa Rica and are excited for our trip!
