As you can see, there have been lots of changes in our life as well as with this blog. I am not completely finished with the new layout, but I could not wait to share with you any longer. I think it has been almost 4 months since we moved back to the States! Many things have happened in these past months, and I want to share them with you throughout several posts. They should be filled with lots of gratefulness!

So many people worked hard to prepare for our "homecoming" and I say a big "thank you" to all of you! Especially our families, who sacrificed, worked endless hours, and prayed for a smooth transition for us and the boys. The pictures above give you a feel of our new home. The home belonged to Todd's dear "Memo". She was an exceptional lady who loved Jesus and her family. It has been a place of peace these last months when many things in our lives were difficult and trying at times. I am so very thankful for our "home" and for those who prepared it for us. "Come to me , all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30
