A pictures says 1,000 words ~ right?

Life has been crazy. 

I know I promised to update the blog weekly and that has been my goal, but LIFE HAS BEEN CRAZY!!! 

We left California and headed back to Texas.  We had Thanksgiving.  And now we have been packing, unpacking.  Sorting and resorting.  What to take and what should stay?  What should we ship?  What should we take on the plane with us?  My brain is a mess of list. A list of things that need to get done.  A list of things to pack.  A list of what list I still need to make.  And oh the emotions.  I can burst into tears at the drop of a hat.  My poor husband does not know what to do with me.  Sometimes he hugs me, sometimes he just walks away, and sometimes he will cry with me.  I love him.

Here are some pictures from our life.  Please enjoy!!

PS - I do plan to update before we leave but there is a GREAT chance that they next time you read a post from me I will be in Japan.  Thanks for your prayers over the last two years.  Please continue to pray for us.  We have a lot of "First" in our near future.
