So... it is January 10th 11:47pm. I leave tomorrow morning to board my flight to the Philippines. I have a 20 hour plane ride with a 2 hour layover in Tokyo Japan. I will try to update this and let everyone who cares know how I am doing. I like doing it this way because if you really care you can check yourself instead of me sending you emails to remind you that I am not at home anymore. :)
I finished all my shopping today and I am pretty sure I have everything ready to go! I was told I had a 70lb weight limit on my luggage. I thought I was doing great when i weighed my luggage at home at 51lbs. I then reread my plane ticket information and my second flight only allows 44lbs. So I either have to downsize in the morning or try to fit 7 lbs into a carry on. (not happening!)
There have been several challenges already but WAY more sucesses and I know that I am in the middle of God's will and i hear that is the safest place to be. :)
Any questions just post them or email me at toni.ripplinger@gmail.com
I am not sure how often I will have internet access there but as soon as I do I will post to let you know I have made it!
MUCH LOVE AND I WILL MISS YOU ALL...

44lbs, huh. I guess you couldn't have stuffed me into your bag. Too bad.
Ashley stole what I was going to say! Now I can't come up with anything else.
Toni,
You'll have a great time and will be home before you know it. Hope your flights went well. Remember how much I liked your hair when you sprayed it black for Halloween. You could always dye your hair black when you get to the Philippines if you feel you don't want to stand out as that blue eyed blond hair girl. Just an FYI. Will miss you lots!
