Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Missouri

So far the trip has been absolutely wonderful! Currently were in Missouri and we're closing in on New Tribe Mission's Training Center where we are going to be dropping off TJ, Lily, and the girls. It will obviously be bittersweet because we will miss them so much but we are very excited about what God has planned for them.

We've been really enjoying the stops and impromptu exploring we've been doing. We've had some amazing picnic lunches where we've gotten to see some beautiful parts of America. The world takes in a different view when seeing it from your children's delighted eyes! Anywhere we stop is fun if we take a little time to look at what is around us:)

We stopped in Atlanta and passed by the first Chick fa la and went on to eat some very tasty and spicy Ethiopian food. We also routed through Memphis to get some famous BBQ. We researched and found a place that was both an international and national winner. However, sadly, it was an epic fail for our meal:) oh well, there's always more food.

We stopped at a great friends house and spent the night with them and their creative and bright children. It was such a blessing to feel so at home and encouraged in the Lord.

Currently we just pulled a mere four miles off the road and enjoyed a life long memory picnic at Big River Springs. A river worked its way though the limestone and dropped down through a cave coming out at our picnic location as pristine turquoise blue. There were weeping willows hanging over the river and gorgeous oak trees lining the fields and playground.

Kyle and I are glowing as we get to spend all day together and work as a team. It's a special time indeed!

God is good:) !
