A Contest (for prizes)!

OK, so "Lanser Travels" is boring.  Global trip? Worldwide adventure?  Boring...boring.  But we know we have some creative friends, so we're asking you to come up with a name for our adventure. The girls will be voting on their favorite and we'll determine just the perfect prize for our winner. You have until Tuesday night!

And on a different note, a little chat about prayers:

Part of my delay in writing a second entry is that the last couple of days have been extremely stressful with lots of changes and glitches--showing me how much I need to depend on God through each step of this, and also showing me how poorly I'm doing at that :)

I want to really emphasize that we understand what a gift it is to be able to do this trip--we have the health, job, and resources to attempt it.  That makes me feel kind of guilty asking for prayers.  BUT, the ability to do this and the excitement about it in no way diminishes the fear and stress and hugeness of this all.  So it would mean the world to me (pun intended!) if I knew you were praying for us each time you think of us or each time you read this blog.  Thanks!
