Progress Report

We thank eveybody so much for all of their support! We are doing so well with our project, and couldn't have done it without support!  We have made a total of 43 makeup bags!!! 43! Our original goal was 20, and we were skeptical that we would even make that many.  But, now that it seems possible, we hope to try and pay for both of our trips with this fundraiser, however, that would mean we need to sell 100 bags.  So please share the link of our page to friends and family! We still have a long way to go even though we have already had such AMAZING progress!
Our most sold bag is the Midnight Wanderer scheme.  We have made 13 of that color scheme.  You may have noticed some of the patterns from that scheme being replaced because we have sold soooo many!! The ones pictured above are only some of the many Midnight Wanderers we have sold.
Lea and I have become very excited about the trip, and hope that the experience is one that we will never forget.  Thanks to everybody for being so supportive of our cause and remember to post the link to this blog on facebook, and tell all of your friends!

Info on our Trip

We want to thank everybody for their support so far! It has been so amazing what we have accomplished in just a week! Already we have completed 17 makeup bags and more are on the way! We have started to run out of certain fabrics, so you may notice that some color schemes are changing or being removed.  Do not worry if the combo you ordered is gone, you will still get the scheme you ordered originally. 
We are very excited about the mission trip to Haiti.  It seems as each day goes on, more plans go into place, and more excitement builds.  So far we have a team of ten, but a few more may decide to join us.  The dates of our trip are March 21-29.  Our team plans on going to Gressier Haiti to work at the Respire Christian School.  For more information on the school you can visit www.respirehaiti.org
