On the Road Again

This is the view that greeted us as we drove into Fallon, CO, the location of our new rental home.

We set forth on the first leg of our 5 legged journey to CO (just a reminder of the legs: FL to CO, CO to NC, NC to FL, FL to NC, NC to CO).

On Tuesday we packed ourselves in my Cube and drove to FL. On Wednesday morning we picked up our Penske moving truck and began loading things from our massive storage units. As we packed the truck like a well-planned puzzle, we arranged and organized things in our remaining storage units (went from having 6 units to 3 units). We filled the truck by the end of the day. Went home and got a good night's sleep. There were still many loose ends to tie up in Jax, so we didn't make it out of town until 6pm on Thursday. We drove straight through the night and all day on Friday. After stopping for 5 or so hours at a hotel, we were rested enough to continue into Colorado on Saturday morning (this morning). After returning the car carrier, gassing up, and getting a weigh ticket we finally made it to our new rental house a little after 1pm.


We were greeted with such love! This sign has been around for a few years, as a reminder that even if we don't have a house, we always have a home in Colorado.

With the help of our amazing friends, the truck was unloaded in record time and we were able to enjoy a nice meal before beginning to unpack boxes. Collier and I were able to fit in some much-needed school work!


We also celebrated sweet little Katrina's 9th birthday! She was so kind and helpful in her eagerness to spend her birthday helping us unload our big moving truck.

We are incredibly tired, but there is still much to do. I am looking forward to worshiping as a complete family and spending time with the Nabeta family on Sunday night. It feels so good to be home!
