A summary of the last month...


Above is a typical picture for Micah as we have traveled & traveled & both kids have been stuck in their car seats for multiple hours...

We have traveled through several states, visiting many family and friends, raising support. We have had many car rides, some last as long as 12 hours, in the rain and heavy wind; seen all types of weather conditions from hot sun shine to snow flurries (in IL). We have enjoyed our trips and times spent with loved ones before leave and move overseas. Here is a summary of pictures of who all we visited and things we did... Enjoy!


Morgan enjoyed her first Easter Egg Hunt.. actually the eggs weren't really hidden at all and were laying in the grass for her to pick up and put in her basket.

It was so funny to watch her as she would shake the eggs and if she didn't hear any noise (meaning loose candy) she would throw it on the ground.


Micah's first Easter- hanging out w/Daddy!

In San Antonio at Randall's parent's house, Morgan learned to ride a tricycle

We visited our friends and family in Effingham, IL and while there went to the H.S. Musical Beauty & The Beast. We arrived early so Morgan could get a picture w/Belle (Thanks Hilary!)

We also visited some good friends in Houston and Morgan now has a new friend, Payton Heston

In Austin, we stayed w/Justin & Amanda Terry and Morgan's new phrase "I Love Everest!" She is so funny, she meets someone new & instantly loves them.

We also went to the Zoo in San Antonio (Morgan & Micah's first time). It was really fun!

And last but not least, we visited friends in Brownwood, TX & took the kids to the Howard Payne University Campus (a school dear to our hearts)

As of now we are in Virginia for the next several weeks and will try & keep our blog updated as much as possible (at least as long as we have internet service)!

Good to hear you arrived safe. Loved the pictures. Give Morgan and Micah a hug. Thought of you all last night, as Pastor spoke from the book of Micah. Can't wait to hear what stories Morgan has to share next time.

What a whirlwind of a trip. So many people to see....I'm glad we made the list. We look at your card on our fridge and ask Payton, "Where's Morgan?" and she finds her every time....it's really sweet. Love you guys

Wow the first picture of Micah is so cute! He looks like Morgan to me :) I love her Easter dress pictures, there's just something so precious about little girls in Easter dresses!

Take care,
