Thanks giving

I am currently waiting out a lay over in the Orlando, FL airport, on my way to Peru. At this point, I feel like I am in between two worlds, my life in Montana and my soon to be life in Lima, Peru. Strange how emotions can be so mixed. I am very excited for what God has planned for my life in Lima, yet, there is still a intense sadness at leaving relationships with family and friends here. It was hard to say good bye, yet that is part of what I am thankful for. Thankful that I have people who I love, who love me and who are not easy to leave.

The pictures below are just a small compilation of what has been going on in the past weeks, in very random order.


Playing some cards after dinner on Thanksgiving day.

Mom, Karli, and our cat after they helped me pack.


Playing in the snow one last time.


Karli and I playing with our cousin's son Derek in Billings, Thanksgiving weekend.


My Mom, Grandma, Aunt Susan, and Aunt Peggy in Denver. (notice why Peggy isn't smiling, she's the one in the reindeer ears)


My Mom and Cousin Adam's baby, with Kylee trying to get the baby. She really wanted him.

Hola! How is everything going? I'm getting pretty anxious to hear how you're doing and what all you've been up to!

Are you adjusting well?

Such a blessing you are!

We're thinking of you and praying for the impact you're having on those around you.

Merry Christmas.... and love...! *sniff, sniff*. :)
