Busy Bees!

Has it been a while? Or has it been a while? I tell you what, we have been so busy getting ready to skip the country that I just haven't kept up with much.

Quick run down? *Read this as if I'm not even stopping to take a breath. Also forgive the photo quality; my convenient iPhone has been my go-to camera.*

So, many moons ago, we had a yard sale to sell all of our stuff. We made almost $2,000. Praise the Lord. Little did we know how much we would actually need that money until we got our first IMB paycheck that only compensated for 8 days of our salary. Let's just say, Ouch.

We sold everything, but three boxes of stuff.

That night our best friends threw us a Harry Potter-themed "going away" party.

There is just too much cuteness in this photo, I can hardly stand it!!

The following week, on July 17, we crated the rest of our life. And let's all say, Ouch, again because that was a painful-like process.

Hot.mess.

Hot.mess.

Once everything was packed away and sent to the crating company, we became squatters in our own house.

Happy to be squatters.

 The very next day, we went and got tats, courtesy of Kevin at Bleed Blue Tattoo.



Jesus said to him, "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God." Aka. Kelli, give it all you got and don't look back.

Sunday, July 22, we skipped town and headed for FPO in Virginia!

BEAUTIFUL West Virginia



Dinner at Applebees in Beckley, WV where we stayed for the night.



hu-larious.

After dinner, we walked back to our hotel and watched The Blind Side until about 10:00 pm. It was the most relaxing night we had had as a family in a looong time.

The next morning Waverly swam!

Hotel with a swimming pool, duh.

Then we got in the car and continued our journey to Virginia!!

Over it.

More to come...
