The kids and I have only 7 more days in the U.K. One week from today we will board our overseas flight bound for Los Angeles and must endure an 11.5 hour flight with 3 kids. Oh joy!!
I hope they sleep for most of it! From LA we will catch another flight to Albuquerque where we will spend Thanksgiving with Devin's parents and also pick up our new car! Woohoo! We will be so happy to have a large car again and wider streets to drive it on! After a week there, Devin will return to England and the kids and I will drive to Colorado Springs and stay with my parents for 6 to 8 weeks! It will be nice to spend Christmas with them and enjoy some snow. The kids are hoping for enough to play in and go sledding. It will be sad to be apart from Devin during the holidays and for so long. We haven't been apart more than 2 weeks since he deployed in 2003. It hasn't really sunk in that we are leaving England but I think it's because I haven't really had time to let it. I know if I sat and thought about it I would start to cry. It's always a two-edged sword for us having to move every few years. 3 years is only barely enough time to make good friends but long enough to create memories. I now have to let go of everything here but at least I can take the memories with me. On to the next adventure and new friends! Farewell England. We will miss you!

Hey Devin and Andrea! I read your blog! I enjoy checking up on you all and seeing how the Lord is leading you throughout the years. Exciting that you'll be moving back! We are leaving in 10 mos - and it's looking like HI! Thought I would say Hi. Here's my blog: homeschoolblogger.com / (lightbearer) take out the spaces and parenthesis

Nikki! I'm glad you read my blog. I read yours too! I don't know if you will see this but I don't have any way to contact you. No email for you either. Are you really moving to Hawaii? That's so exciting!
