Safe and Sound in New Mexico

Hello everyone! Just to fill you in on the last week or so, our road trip to NM went pretty well. I was not looking forward to the long trip, but honestly, Matt and I had much more fun than I had anticipated. Along the way, we did get to spend some time with an aunt and uncle of Matt's, which really helped to break up the trip. We appreciated the hospitality!

The first few days in town, we hunted for a home. We looked at both houses and apartments and, at this point, are still unsure of exactly where we're going to live. Thanks to our good friends, Jay and Jessica, we were nicely welcomed in their home until we can make a decision. Thanks, Kennedy's!

Matt's family came into town for the weekend! What a ball! We got to spend some quality time with them which was a real blessing. We celebrated 3 holidays...Father's Day, Mike and Teri's Anniversary, and Matt's Birthday. The family was able to go with us to our first service back at Sagebrush Community Church which was a special treat! It was so nice to see some familiar faces, and get some hugs from those we had sweet fellowship with just a few years ago. It's good to be back!

I dropped Matt off at the church early this morning for his trip to Juarez, Mexico. He'll be returning on Friday afternoon. Please pray for all involved, that each will be blessed not only by serving, but by being served as well and that their ultimate mission, God's glory, will be accomplished!

Right after I post this, I'm on my way to Farmington to go visit my family. Looking forward to having some quality time with the familia!

Hope all is well!
