Just Because We Can!






In as much as we were online, I figured we would leave a short post. I can't really think of anything New! Headed to IL Saturday! Fun, Fun, Fun!!!! Oh, we also celebrate 2 wonderful, glorious, outstanding, and incredible (not to mention wild, wacky, and crazy) years of marriage on Monday, May 4th. Plans for the day include driving home!

Life is an interesting thing. Just when you think you have things figured out you find you have nothing figured out. Here we are trying to prepare for Mongolia. Our departure looms on the horizon. We are both nervous and elated! We can already taste the Yak butter! Then we realize that we still need A LOT of support to get there. Imagine that! As I usually do, I began to panic. "What of the Yak?" I ask in pained urgency! But no need to fear! We have wonderful family and friends, not to mention a wonderful and generous Father! We know that the support will come, and we will be enjoying Yak butter before we know it. Another joy before the journey was the removal of my wisdom teeth! I am dying for a piece of pizza! Soft food can only go so far. And, alas, it makes no sense why one must pay so much in order to suffer so much pain and recieve nothing in return, in fact they took something I already had, my teeth and my money! Oh well, I will be munching away on regular food before long. I think I heard someone say Famous Dave's for dinner. Yippee!!!

And Away We Go!

It is difficult to imagine that within a few short months we will be on our way to Mongolia! In order to keep everyone updated on a weekly basis we decided to set up this blog. Posts will be made concerning our daily lives, the experiences that we have, and life in another country. In the meantime, I will attempt to keep posts about how we are coming in our preperations for our grand journey. Thank you for your friendships and for your interest in our lives!
