ON THE ROAD AGAIN Our family had become quite comfortable living in my aunt & uncle’s home. We had unpacked #allthethings. I came home from the Convention excitement to find that my sweet husband had moved everything to the living room so I could pack more easily. I hadn’t heard of a tornado passing through the area, but it sure looked like one touched down and created this mess! What in the world?! After kissing the kids goodnight, I embarked on a seemingly impossible task to get ... Read More...

Trusting His Faithfulness over Fears
Crazy? Maybe. Adventurous? Definitely. We have shared our newest adventure with friends and strangers alike, and many of the responses have been similar in nature. We see the wheels turning.
