Home

We have been home for a week.  We had a long day last Monday...30 plus hours of travel.  Arrived in Richland after flying through Germany and Seattle.  

We've bought a car, got clothes out of storage, etc., etc.  Today we have started to feel a little energetic. The combination of travel and serving for twenty-three months has exhausted us.  Sunday we spoke in church - Sherry spoke for almost 25 minutes and Ansel gave a surprise piano solo!  I was happy to have seven or eight minutes to speak.  I got Jonas to help me a little which was fun.
We've talked with Jamie and Amanda and Skyped with Jared and family. Sunday we spoke at church and got to attend Ansel's Eagle Court of Honor.  

Friday we head up to Spokane to spend a few days with Hannah and then leave Monday for a trip around America to see our family and friends.  We'll be gone two months and then will move into an apartment and go back to work with Christopher.

We are awed by the affluence we enjoy in this great country.  Driving down the freeway in our comfortable car - going where we want, when we want, is incredible.  America is a blessed nation.
We continue to Skype with our Russian friends and follow them on Facebook.

We have made friends for eternity...and we will never be the same.
