Biopsy
We’ve been busy, hence the lack of posts. This is always a busy time of the year for us. Once home from our heativersary trips, it’s officially the holiday season and all that comes with that. For us, this means a lot of ministry work, too. Our last trip was a ministry trip to various…

Rejection
That title is just as scary to write as it is to read; no, I’m sure it is much more frightening for me to write than for you to read. We don’t know specifically if we are in a full-blown rejection or what level it is. Sadly, we won’t even have the answer to that…

Back to Houston
Honestly, I hadn’t even unpacked completely from our South Dakota trip until yesterday when I packed for this trip! After getting home, we quickly made a trip to San Antonio to see the orthopedic surgeon to check Amanda’s knee out. We were 50/50 if a call would come in for us to go to Houston,…

Long Drive Home
Last-day posts are always hard for me to do once we return home. I guess I get out of the groove, but I thought I’d catch y’all up before we head to Houston tomorrow for a check-up on the rejection. We were up early, leaving Colorado Springs, but not early enough to beat traffic. It…

Last Look at South Dakota
Even though it was check-out day, we were still up early to see critters. I was up early to work on a post. I was behind a day, so I made coffee, lit a fire, and got my MacBook out. Amanda was tired and quiet, but I knew she wanted to see animals on the…

Last Look Around
Amanda was a little chipper the morning on the last full day in South Dakota. She is only a morning person on vacation, not at home, though. That woman does not like to be up early! It was cold, and I had a fire going strong when she happily poked her head around the corner…

Heartiversary in Spearfish Canyon
It was an early wake-up on the official heartiversary day, October 22. We needed to be back early to get all dolled up for the ballet in the evening. On the itinerary, I had “no showers, get up and go!” Amanda had her alarm set early. I asked why it was so early, and she…

Badlands National Park
It was another leisurely get-up this morning, but I was still up relatively early. We planned on leaving late because we wanted to visit Mt. Rushmore after dark. A few friends suggested we go after dark. We would leave down the road we had arrived on the first day to see things now in the…

From an Iron Mountain to a Windy Cave
After the long road trip, we slept in with no alarms set. I still got up a bit early but headed straight to my spot for my usual routine thus far: coffee, fire, post. I brought my coffee mug, which a friend gave me for Christmas. Amanda laughed at me for wanting to carry it…

North Dakota Road Trip
It would be a long day, the longest of this trip, so I was up early. I usually get ready after Amanda; I gauge my time by where she is in her routine. Getting ready first gave her uninterrupted time to get ready, with no steaming mirror while putting on makeup! Today, I took a…
