WE GOT OUR TICKETS!!!


We are Thailand bound- March 19th!

WE GOT OUR INTERNATIONAL TICKETS!!!! And in true "God style" it was above and beyond what we were expecting or would have even dreamed!

You may or may not know, but Jen is going to be doing some trip set-up work for TeenMania while we are over in Thailand. We have been working with TeenMania on having them book our tickets together so we could be on the same itinerary. The final plan was for TeenMania to book my (Stephanie's) ticket on our friends AA miles. Then they would book Jen's ticket on TeenMania's miles. Then, compensate Jen a little bit for the work she is going to do.

Well, earlier in the week this plan changed to: TeenMania booking both our tickets on their miles, us paying TeenMania $300 for all the taxes/fees, having to fly into Bangkok and having to get our own tickets into Chiang Mai (this equals more money and more stress b/c of customs) & Jen not getting any compensation for her work in trade for the tickets.

Well, Jen and I did some praying and research . . . and now the new and final plan is:
TeenMania is getting BOTH of our tickets, we aren't having to use our friends miles, TeenMania is paying all the taxes/fees, we will be flying all the way into Chiang Mai on these tickets, and TeenMania is still compensating Jen the original amount for the work she'll be doing.
What?!?!

God is SO good!! We feel a little silly for even worrying about it! Why do we continue to doubt God? Like the Israelites- we keep having to go around the same mountain till we finally understand that we can TRUST God to do what He say's He'll do!

We are so humbled at how He has continued and continued to provide for us! Giving us things before we knew we needed them and providing above and beyond what we have asked for.
