Alaska or Bust!

Jeremy has FINISHED his first year of law school! We are amazed at how quickly it flew by and are so excited to have him back (sort of - you know, he's still taking classes and will be working) for the summer. We have been truly blessed this past year with new and wonderful friends, a great place to live, beautiful surroundings, and so much more. Kansas has been good to us.

It's our last night here in Topeka *sniff* (I'm going to miss these luscious trees, but definitely not the humidity and creepy bugs). We'll be heading out tomorrow evening so the kiddos can sleep in the car and we'll have a good stretch of driving that doesn't involve screaming. We plan to blog on our way north as long as we can find a wireless connection, so stay tuned. Tomorrow involves all the packing and cleaning - that's right, I've saved it all for the day of departure. Keep us in your prayers!
