Finally Home!

     After six weeks on the road, we are finally back home and trying to get back into our normal routines.  We arrived on Monday evening around 5:00 and spent the next couple of hours unloading the RV.  There is still more work to do, but the rest can be done a little at a time. 
   
     It rained hard off and on during our seven hour drive from Luray, VA, but by God's grace we didn't have any trouble.  The closer we got to NC, the more eager we all were to see home.  We made as few stops as possible so we could get there quickly. 
    
     Last night, Michael was putting away some of his things and he said he felt like a stranger in his own home.  He could hardly remember where to put everything.  It did seem a little strange at first.  I was just glad to have a little room to spread out.  Jeremiah didn't waste any time getting outside to play with Cheyenne (our Boxer) and Michaela loved on her baby, Gracie (our Dachshund). 

     It will take us a few days to get settled back in.  The boys are in desperate need of a haircut, the flower bed is being over taken by weeds, there is a mountain of mail to go through, the pile of dirty laundry is growing, and the Jeep needs a bath (inside and out)!  Oh, well.....all good things must come to an end.  Time to get back to work.
    
We are so thankful for the wonderful opportunity that God gave us with this trip.  We do not take for granted His Blessings!  This trip was a once in a lifetime experience for all of us and the memories will be with us forever.  We appreciate all of the prayers for our safety while we were traveling. 
Our God answers prayer!
