To ship or not ship, that is the question

We thought we would share with you a little glimpse of the school where we will be working. It is called, International Community School (ICS) and is located in the heart of Bangkok. Please go to: www.icsbangkok.com to learn more about the school. At the school's website you can also see some pictures of the facility. At the top of the website, click on "About" and then the drag down chart will show "Photo Gallery." The first picture that pops up will probably be the current staff of ICS. On the far right side of the page, there are other pictures of the facility that you can click on. If you are interested in seeing any other "albums," on the right side of the screen you will find other links for "Athletics, Fine Arts, & International Night," but we thought the facility would probably be the most interesting to our readers.

Today marks the official 3-month mark until departure. Times is going so quickly! We have already started packing up things that we don't feel that we need from now until our return. We did pack up our sweaters, so we're praying that God thinks that winter is supposed to be over too. ;) There are still plenty of things that I feel like I could pack up in boxes, such as pictures/paintings/more books/scrapbooking & card making materials, but some of those things take the feel of "home" away from our little place, and other things I wonder if I would use or want before June and we have to officially be moved out of the apartment.

This past weekend, Mike made me stand in front of our bookshelf so that each of us could pick out the 8 books that we are going to take to Thailand with us. Needless to say, for two book lovers, it was a ridiculously hard task! We were only planning on taking two suitcases each and then our carry on bags, but after the difficult book selection, we may have to ship some stuff to Thailand afterall...
