We made it home...finally!

We are in our new home and unpacking. Alyson arrived home on Friday and I arrived home Sunday at 2:00 a.m. We are all doing well. My trip with my dad in the moving truck was fun, but very uncomfortable. The truck was not made for comfort. We both came away from the 26 hour trip with very sore backs. Split the trip up, though not evenly. 7 hours on Friday, and 19 on Saturday. We had planned to stop and sleep Saturday night, but I think that my dad and I both dreaded getting back into the truck again for a third day.
Our new apartment is very nice and I think we will enjoy living here for a short time. I only have a 2 mile commute to work, which in this town is a true blessing (traffic stinks here).

My dad got to meet Brooks for the first time today. It was awesome!!! I will post pictures soon. My dad got so fired up after meeting Brooks that he went and bought a brand new Mustang. I'm thinking it will be a great hand-me-down for Brooks.

Anyway, we are here and settling in. We already miss our friends in Abilene.

It is a long way from Abilene to Rochester. However, it is amazing how the road between those two towns has touched the lives of so many people. There has to be some spiritual connectivity that we will only understand after we get to heaven.
