Safe and Sound

We just wanted to let everyone know that we made it safely to Singapore! It was pretty uneventful:) I've been reading every one's e-mail but it may take me a little while to answer them. The next few days will be busy as we learn to adjust to the time change and do some shopping for things we need. Thank you for all the prayers! We could most definitely feel them and we're thankful to God that He'll carry us through the next few days!

PS: We arrived at our temporary housing and an hour later were playing hymns for some comfort and familiarity! Thank you Katie!!

Phase 2 - Completed

We are safely in Illinois. We had a LONG, uneventful trip out here with lots of traffic. Pretty much from KC all the way to Chenoa exit there was constant, steady traffic that we aren't used to seeing. It took 9 hours instead of 7 due to 4 stops and being at a stand still in traffic twice around St. Louis - in the middle of the afternoon. BUT we are here safe and sound and I've done NOTHING all morning in an attempt to relax a little before the holiday rush begins tomorrow:) My next job this afternoon is to go through all of our bags and clean out and reorganize since we just threw things in them while packing at 3am last Monday!

The twins had a fun Holiday party on Thursday - the class had made a really cute scrapbook that they gave to them to remember all their Kindergarten friends. We tried getting out of town Thursday after the party but ended up leaving yesterday morning instead. It worked out better that way as it gave us time to visit Don and Eileen and Gene and Mary before we left. Plus, most of our trip was in the daylight which was a plus since we kept running into fog.

Anyway, once my camera battery is charged again I will post pictures of the twins last day at Blue River...
