Humbly Home

Okay, so I have been slightly disconnected for the last few weeks.  I figured I better give an update on how we have been doing.  A lot has changed since May 5th.  The initial move back to the USA was fine as all of our luggage made it to our final destination.  We spent a few days with Heidi's family in Fort Wayne and then headed onward to Saint Louis in a rented Budget Truck!  We drove from Saint Louis up to my family's house in Akron, IA as a stopping point before we headed down to look at houses in and around Des Moines.  WE ended up finding a great house in Ankeny, IA that fit our price range and also our tastes.  It is great because I only have a 15 minute commute to Des Moines (where my new job is) and the same time frame for access to much of the Des Moines Metro area.  We are getting to know our surroundings again, much like when we first moved to Panama, we have a lot to learn.

Here is a picture of our new home from the front:

So, for those of you who were wondering if we ever made it back to the States, or if I had just fallen off the face of the planet--I am back and will do my best to keep up with my blog posts!  It should be an exciting summer! Thank you for your prayers and encouragement over the last few weeks!
