They’re on the road

They’re on the road

I can’t tell you how satisfying it is to know that someone is making that very, very, very long drive from Iowa in order to come down and see US!  I mean, we’re always the ones making it to go see THEM, so it’s super cooler to sit here and think Woah, we can see some cool people, and we don’t even have to ride in the car to do it this time!!!

And after leaving only an hour late, The Brother, Laura and Ernie are on the road.  They’re almost out of Iowa, too.

I hope they get here soon.  But….it will still be a real long time.

The sad part is, Brother told me he was down to 2-lane in Iowa near the Missouri border due to some road construction, AND I KNEW RIGHT WHERE HE WAS.

Maybe we have made that drive just a few too many times.

Joey is my best friend. We welcomed our miracle baby, Analie Alexa on November 23, 2010. She was 7 lbs of cuteness and we are so thankful for her. We lost our first baby (who we symbolically named Samuel) the summer of 2009. I love being a Christian, even when it's hard. I've tried IVF. Twice. It worked. Once. That's how we got Analie. I'm always willing to talk about infertility. Diagnosis: Stage 4 Endometriosis (plus a few other bonus things) I'm live in Indiana. I enjoy reading and going for walks in the evening. I get my news from NPR. Someday I want to be a guest on Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me. I love backpacking, hiking, canoeing and survival camping. I'm a big fan of weekends. My bike's name is Thunder. I'm a youth pastor's wife. I dig cows. I don't handle stress well. I'm not good at fishing; I talk too much. Cooking and baking are my favorite. I love hanging out with my girlfriends! I'm a budding environmentalista. I love me my Joey. Texas is where we "came of age". I enjoy seeing animals and want my very own Alpaca. And Koala. And Panda. Conservation is beautiful. I'm a neat freak. I like all-natural, chemical-free, environmentally-friendly products. Green is my favorite color. Still.

  1. I know how finally having people coming insanely long distances to see YOU feels. When my friend Kristin flew here IN June and Scott came here last week and experienced all of the glorious delays associated with United, I was all, ” DO you SEE what I mean? This is why Delta is way better!” Also, they discovered how boring the Denver airport is. Yes, it is VERY boring. They got sick of the astronaut statue like I did too.
