We’ve had a great, if quiet, week here in Florida. We’ve managed to book some fun future travel plans, talk to the kids and grandkids and other family, and enjoy this corner of the world.
This slice of Florida has been great this month. We’ve really enjoyed being able to take our daily walks in a beautiful place. People here are friendly and the resort is impeccably kept. Although we have had some decidedly COLD days, we escaped the bitterest of weather that much of the country endured this month. We sure can’t complain! It’s been really good to feel settle a bit so that we could get some things done. To everything there is a season, and this has been our season to be still. Soon, it will be our season to move and we’ll bring you all along on some new adventures!
We’re on our way back to Ohio/West Virginia to see Lauren and Bo and the kids, but we’re going slowly via Nashville and Dayton. We’ll check in next week from beautiful Marietta, Ohio!
Closing This Chapter
So, here we are. It’s been 90 weeks since we drove out of our driveway in Sandy, bound for new experiences and a unique chapter of our life by moving to Europe. We started another chapter when we returned to the U.S. last summer. A LOT has happened since then, and we have been blessed to spend tons of time with family and friends across the country. The last ten months have been such a precious season to reconnect, to celebrate, and to mourn with those we love. Now, it’s time to close that chapter and open another — time for another adventure!
Mountains and More
Another fun week in Utah with family and friends doing some of our favorite things!
Utah!
I missed doing a post last week because we were en route to Utah from St. Louis. We really enjoyed our last week with Alex, Hanna, and the boys. We had a great time playing outside with the kids, going to the library and the St. Louis Science Center.
This week we have been in Centerville staying with Margaret (who is such a kind and accommodating host) and having a good mix of family time, outdoor fun, and working on sorting through Nathan’s dad’s office/studio. Our daughter, Lauren, flew in from West Virginia yesterday to ski with her dad. We are enjoying the beautiful, snowy mountains and the relaxed visits with family and friends. We will be here for three more weeks, so if you want to meet up, send me a message!
I love that photo of the boardwalk through the wetlands! Beautiful!
