Back in touch with the world......

I haven't had access to the Internet in some time now......wow, it's so odd to realize how much this trip has changed me in so little time. I used to spend so many hours online, watching t.v., doing things that really had no relevance . For the last few weeks I haven't had much contact with the "real world" other than by phone, and talking to other campers along the way. It has forced me to think about life and what's really important. Being surrounded by nature, God, the people that I adore.....spending time with my family, sitting outside at night watching the big open sky with all of it's amazing life.....watching the sun set over the horizon and seeing so many bright beautiful colors in every direction with no end in sight and the shadows of rolling hills in the back ground.....hiking in huge towering trees that seem to reach the sky ......miles of solitude, biking through the lost pines and adoring the nature that I am embedded in, seeing the suns rays touch the tips of cactus with beautiful lush green trees as the backdrop, hiking until the point of exhaustion and finding a beautiful crystal clear stream surrounded by huge bluffs covered with trees and the sun setting perfectly with bold yellow and pink rays in the sky, watching my son throwing pebbles in a stream, or seeing him cast the perfect line into a lake for the first time ......I feel so overwhelmed with all of the beauty around me that I can hardly contain my emotions and it makes me want to cry. Never in my life have I ever felt so at peace .

Our New Location!

And we're off.......................

We left Nebraska last Sunday so we've been on the road for about a week now! We took I-35 down into Texas and we're currently allllll the way down by Houston trying to find that PERFECT spot! We've already seen some pretty interesting things and Mark is learning a ton of new things! We miss you all soooo much! I'll write more soon!

Yiiippiieeeaawwww crap!

Well, now that Mark is done running back and forth in the RV shouting "wooooo hoooooo" and Denny and I have stopped running up and down the street naked shouting Yippieeeee...(ok, not really) we're finally getting down to the nitty gritty! We've split up about TWENTY instructional manuals, started shopping for supplies, and getting last minute things done around the house. It's a lot of work but it will all pay off real soon! The time to depart is getting closer and I'm getting pretty antsy! I've even been getting up super duper early (for those who know me well that means around 7 or 8 am!)

Since I don't have any new exciting adventures yet I decided to add some cool stuff to look at in the meanwhile. Check out the links on the right side of my page. There's photos, some websites that I belong to, and even some old videos that I have on you tube.

Enjoy!

Yippieeeee

We will be heading out on the road pretty soon so I thought that I would start a blog to keep our family and friends updated. I'll be posting all of our new adventures along with lots of great photos and maybe even some videos! (Guess it's the next best thing to cramming you all in the RV with us!)

Here are pictures of our new Rig! It's a brand new Jayco Eagle! We are so excited about starting our new adventures within the next week or two!
