Well... it's been quite a while since I last posted here, and much has changed. 

While staying in Virginia, we started to do some serious soul-searching, and ultimately decided that it was time to head for home... for good this time.  There are a lot of reasons, and it was a bittersweet decision.  We were sad to end our time on the road, but happy to be returning home. 

We've been home for several weeks now, and are still settling in and unpacking.   I've gone back to work at the hospital that I worked at before we started traveling.  We also got our dog back from the friends we had given her to...  they had not bonded with her, and when they found out we were staying home, they asked us to take her back.  We even got our old phone number back!  (Unheard of, according to the guy at the phone company!)  Now we just have to sell the truck & trailer!!

So, now we begin a new season... with a teenager, and three more to follow! (EEK!)  It will be exciting to see God's plan for our family as it unfolds. 

We learned a lot while we were on the road, and now we get to see how well we can apply what we've learned.  I'll share more about those life-lessons in later days...
