Whirlwind of a Life

Hello everyone!

I have been back on the continent of Europe for just 4 weeks and 1 day and have already been to 4 other countries besides the Netherlands! All of that, plus getting over jetlag, painting our house, enjoying Queen's Day (Koninginnedag), an All Europe Retreat for missionaries in Europe, seeing old friends and making new ones, volunteering and camping 6 days at an outdoor festival called Opwekking (meaning revival or awakening)...

And that doesn't include sleeping, eating, figuring out where things are again, and trying to speak 4 different languages at random times to various people! Life is good!

I am so very thankful and grateful to be here. In many respects, it was a very long journey getting back here- and yet, God has blessed and strengthened me along every step of the way. It is incredible to know and Trust that He has it already figured out, and I am right where I am supposed to be. I am honoured to be here, doing what I do- I can't think of a better life!

I will include some pictures of my adventures very soon! Much Love and blessings!

WE ARE HERE!!!

Well.. We finally made it! After 12 days of waiting to see what would happen, we were able to get on 2 airplanes and arrive safely in Schiphol airport in the Netherlands on Wednesday, April 28th. One bag came on Friday since it missed the plane! But everything and everyone is glad to be here :)

We are focusing on settling in to the house and getting over JetLag. I think this is the best transition for JetLag that I've ever had- so I am enjoying that aspect. The house is going to take a lot of work, so we're doing what we can in between head bobs (JetLag induced naps, haha)! It is coming together bit by bit.

Thanks for all your prayers and well wishes, and so on :) I love and appreciate you all!

Blessings
