And We're Off . . . Kind Of!


Well the day finally came. I kind of felt like a child eagerly awaits on Christmas Eve for the next day when he can open his presents. But when I went to open my gifts I found a lump of coal, because even though we have left for our trip we have been sitting in the Yukon for about 15 hours so far and we still have about 7 more hours today. I guess it is part of the whole excitement of the trip, right?!?
We left Friday night and arrived in Lima, OH at 1:30 AM Saturday. After a quick nap and then a less than nutritious.exciting motel breakfast, we were off to Spartanburg, SC.

We were all tired, but since the parents have the camera there are only pictures of the kids!

We landed at our destination at 7:30 ate a fabulous supper with our brother and his family and went right to bed. You might consider me a wimp (and I would not disagree) but I need every ounce of sleep I can get when anticipating the start of our ride in two days!
God has graciously blessed us with wonderful days of travel and we thank yo for your prayers and ask you for them to continue!

You can always have Joshua take a picture of you all-he's pretty darn good with that camera! (he centers his subject much better than his aunt sarah, no offense, Sarah)
