After over 1,300 miles and 37 hours of travel, Jacksonville is my destination as Mrs. International 2014 kicks off. I am beyond excited to be here for Soles4Souls and was able to make a stop at their Headquarters on the way here to drop off more shoes from people committed to Give Shoes and Give Love. This week is going to be alot of fun and new friends, here are a few pictures from the journey here and more to come daily as the week goes on!
Thank you for joining my family and Soles4Souls on this journey to wear out poverty!
Warmly,
Maggi Thorne

It is so handy to bring my own clothing rack so my roommate can take over the closet :) |

Bedside must haves! Don't leave home without them |

My husband made me this sweet sign as a pledge to our marriage. He is one amazing leader and husband! |

To say I like to be organized is quite possibly an understate. I prefer prepared:) Every night when I go to bed, sweet notes and photo reminders of why I am here for Soles4Souls will sit over my head. |

The Omni staff accicentally came knocking to my door thinking I was someone else and as a "oops, thanks for being understanding" , they sent me a sweet, sweet note and fresh fruit! What AMAZING hotel service. |
