Happy June, friends!
Tomorrow is our next big adventure as we head off to dentist appointments, the first of summer gymnastics classes...and then to the Rocky Mountains. We have 17 hours of driving ahead of us before Haylie's wedding-reenactment on Saturday, and have sweet Sofie's 10th birthday in there to boot, so we're stopping a day in Pigeon Forge for roller coasters and celebrating all things Sof.
It's been a busy few days with Matt teaching at church again (such a great message on Spiritual Warfare...you can watch it HERE), packing, family dinner, Memorial Day picnic with two sets of friends, some various good friend time for the girls, finding and babysitting a stray kitten for our sweet niece's birthday next week (which means yes, add "kitten" to the road trip, helping some friends move across town and saying goodbye tonight to some others...you know. All the life stuff + the Ayars Flairs.
I'd be lying if I said Matt and I (or any of us, really) were really looking forward to this road trip...(didn't we just DO a road trip? Nora wanted to know :) but we ARE looking forward to the Heckmans, to Miss Nikki, to Aunt Lori and Uncle Terri's, to Aunt Lisa and Uncle Adam and the cousins, to being with our Sharptown family and our First Wesleyan family...to lots of good opportunities to preach the Gospel, and for lots of good opportunities to encourage it in one another...to being one of the places that has absolutely been HOME.
If you're in the Philly / NJ / DE region, here we'll be!

I hope Stacey is not the navigator for this trip! Rocky Mountains and New Jersey DO NOT belong in the same road trip!
ReplyDeleteoh Stacey. Matt has already corrected me on this three times. SMOKEY MOUNTAINS. If I use my GPS to get to the grocery store (and I DO) then I'm not winging this trip!
