Midwest Bound

Our family has enjoyed the missionary home the Lord has provided.  He has also allowed us to stay in Virginia and meet some new pastors as well as report to our supporting churches.  

I <3 our beautiful state...

lush and green in the summers

bursting with color in the fall

unpredictable temperatures anytime

a perfect mixture of city, country, and coastal living

The only other place I'd rather be is in my home in Croatia!  It really is HOME to us and I'm thankful that we all miss it.

...now back to the Midwest!

We definitely have many places to be on this trip...

Missouri for a week...missionary retreat (I'm speaking to ladies about the blessings and challenges of living and serving in Croatia).  How could I say no we are the only missionaries who represent our group, and finally to see a family friend.

Texas for two church meetings...not my favorite state, but we'll survive

Ohio for seven days...church meetings, loving on family (including two little nephews I have never seen)

Georgia for about a week to see family, report to some supporting churches, celebrate cousins birthdays, and celebrate our country's birthday.

Then HOME!

We have lots of driving, but we are thankful The Lord lets us see this beautiful land.  

Right now I'm sitting with the kids at the indoor pool enjoying these moments as family and also remembering how much I hate elevators! :)
