You will notice the AND was in big print...because those two things are going to be happening at the same time. For those that don't know yet, Jay Dee and I are planning a trip to Indonesia from December 28 until January 12. We are going to visit our good friends, Jeff and Dana Selzer and their family, and we also hope to do service while we are there. The kids will be staying home with grandparents, or that's the plans as of now.
Now also during this time, it has been decided that we will be moving to the farm. We are very, VERY excited about this!! Especially me. I have always been on the farm, and 10 years in town has been enough for me. I am NOT a city girl...just ask Jay Dee. I'd rather be playing in the dirt on a tractor than making sure my yard is perfect like everyone else's. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind mowing at all, its just annoying if you're one or two days behind everyone else, because then it looks even worse!
So by December 23, I will have our entire house in boxes in storage, and we will probably head to Kansas for Christmas and then off to Indonesia. While we are gone, Grandma Elva is moving to our house, and Royce and Carol are moving to Grandma Elva's house. So when we get back, the hope is that our "new" house will be empty and waiting for us! I can only imagine how exhausted we are going to be and how overwhelming all of this is going to be. We will be having extreme jet lag - a 12 hour time difference, 2 kids that haven't seen us in almost 3 weeks, and a house to move into...which means lots of boxes to unpack. So you may want to start saying some prayers for us now!!
So now you know the exciting news in our life. Our summer as already began with lots of busyness. There should be many posts to follow!
