One more sleep...


Ready to hit the road!


We leave tomorrow, we cannot believe the day has finally arrived.  We have been hoping, planning, praying and waiting for this day for over 1 1/2 years.

 Hopefully we will make it to Boise to stay with Beth, a volleyball friend from PLU.  They have graciously hosted us several times in the last couple years.  The boys love playing with their kids.  On Thursday we hope to make the long 10 hour trek from Boise to Boulder City, to stay with the Estes family.  They also have been amazing hosts for us and our 5th wheel.  It is so fun to see PLU friends and get their know their families.  By Friday afternoon we plan to pull into Uncle Kyle's house in Phoenix.  We will be with him all weekend and head to a campground outside Phoenix on Monday.  The boys have a ball at Uncle Kyle's house...video games, the country club, a pool and 3 huge TV's (boy heaven).  

We have been very busy not only packing but cleaning out house for our AMAZING house-sitters.  They have been staying in our basement all Fall, so they will get a major upgrade upstairs while we are gone.  It has been a tremendous blessing to know, love and trust the people who will be living in our house. 

 This is just the boys clothes....but it went from this to...

THIS!

We are having a nice last night at home.  I sure hope that we are able to sleep tonight...we are all so excited.

We were able to have dinner with Grandma Snowdon, Uncle Dave and Papa Bob.  We will miss them so much.  But we hope that they will all meet up with us somewhere on our trip.

 The truck bed is packed from top to bottom and front to back.  We hope it will all fit in the trailer when we make it to Las Vegas.  It has been a challenge to pack without the trailer here...but we are so thankful not to have to tow it on any snowy roads.  

Thank you so much for checking our blog and following our adventures during the next 7 months. 
 We ask for your prayers as we set off on this amazing journey!
