UPDATE TIME...

Our journey from Springfield, MA back to Jax was long but uneventful.  And for that we are thankful.  Many, many prayers were being offered up on our behalf.  The Monaco ran like a champ the whole way and Steven has become very proficient at wheeling our 53 foot (coach and car in tow) rolling home down the road!

We stopped in Jax to unload some of the "extra" decor I had collected while living in the parsonage.  It seems a cannot allow a wall to remain blank; I am compelled to hang something on it.  So, a lot of my "stuff" has to be stored (thanks Erica) at the house since it won't fit in the RV.  :-)  We were able to have lunch with my sweet sister, who met us at Zaxby's, then on to the house to reunite with Clayton, Erica, Braddock, Beckham & April (who was in town for Riley's baby shower!).  Taylor was enjoying Disney with Ed & Angie, but we got to see her the next AM before she & April made the long trek back to DC.  So great to get hugs!!

We then headed out to our property at Ft McCoy for a couple of days before putting the coach in the shop to repair some cold weather damage from being stored up North for 18 months, plus our topper was damaged by a mechanic when it was in the shop in CT...so there were several things that needed attention.  Clayton & Erica allowed us to bunk in with them until we got the coach back.  So blessed that we all live together so well!!   We finally got it back and in working order...then Steven headed back to MA to retrieve our Harley (which we had to leave behind).  He will be riding it back to FL, so pray for his safety on that long adventure!  The great part of the adventure is that he will get to see all of our friends at CIA again and also spend a few nights with Mama & Daddy and Brandon & April, Taylor, Addyson & Kynley (& Riley) as he makes his way there & back!

I will be flying to Atlanta on Tues to spend some more precious time with Adam, Jill, Liz, Cael, Gabe & Debo Grace.  Looking forward to catching-up on their sweet family and being a part of their everyday happenings.

We have sent out some resumes' and will see where God leads next.  Thankful that He has a plan for our lives!  Jeremiah 29:11.  Excited to see it lived-out for our good and His glory!
