On Our Way!!!!

Well, the adventure has begun! The movers came last Saturday and started packing us up! By Sunday evening they were just about finished and on Monday they loaded the truck and took off. Over the weekend our friends Marilena and Julio openned their home for us to stay there while our house was being packed up. During the days we were at home working and then we would head over to their house. Marilena fed us royally! Thanks Marilena!!!! And we had super times sitting around chatting, making smores, watching a video and playing a fiesty game of squence...boys against girls! And the girls rocked!!!!! 3 to 1!!!! Yee Haw!!!! On Monday, Marilena watched Clara for us so we could work harder at the house and get some final things done! What a help that was! Then we loaded up the car, said goodbye to our dear friends :-(, and started off.

The first leg of our trip went very well. Stephen and I shared the driving, although he did the lion's share of it. We made it to New Mexico and stayed with some very kind friends. Next morning we took off just after 7:30 and made it to Kansas. We were in four states in one day! New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. Clara did quite well both days!!! We're now with Mom and Dad M.! Great to see them!!! We'll probably be here for a couple days and then head up to see Daniel and Sarah!

Thank you for all your prayers as we travel!
