saying hellos and good-byes




We always hate this part...saying goodbye to people, especially when it's so long until our next visits and we can't help but feel like we just got here! Today we are leaving Delaware, saying good-bye to all of Matt's family. We have had SUCH a good time with his parents, brother and sister-in-law and with his grandparents and many different dear friends.

My sister, Lisa, joined us from Ohio yesterday, and today we are off for Lebanon, PA. Matt and I were married there three years ago, and it is also the hometown of one of our best friends. Maria and Elisa live in Georgia now, but they drove up to Lebanon for the weekend to spend a day or so with us there. We'll then be heading back through Somerset, PA to say good-bye to Stacey's grandparents, and then through Pittsburg, PA to spend a day with Stacey's aunt before returning to Ohio for our last few days in the states! Whew! Please be praying the Lord would continue to protect us as we travel...

We're just praising the Lord for all of this time...for how faithful He has been to meet our needs, even needs we didn't know we had!

    Hey...you guys were in Lebanon at the same time as us! After making you drive so far out of your way to see us in Pottstown...:0) But we SO needed the time we spent with you on the 11th. I hadn't realized it was your anniversary and we didn't even congratulate you! Well, we're honored that you spent it with us. I'll write you a real email soon.
