We are home!

Mr. Risse, Paul, Dan, Sarah, Mike, Grace and Mrs. Risse
Kaylee, Ian, Sarah, Anna, Mikayla, Naomi, Abby, Luke and Joseph with Emmie

Thankful to the Lord again, we are home. We drove 20 hours through and arrived home a bit after midnight. About 2 miles into the trip Anna became sick. She is a little better now. We had plans to stay the night but it did not work out that way. The kids were asleep when we had plans to stop and Mike was feeling good so we continued driving. Once we thought about stopping because the kids woke up and at that time there were no hotels around. When we finally came across a hotel we were only a couple hours from home so we decided to finish it out. The Lord was in all that as a winter storm hit today that I was not really aware of and so the Lord protected us from that.

We had a great time in TX where the Ledbetters gave us the master room and bath in their very nice new home. It was so good to have everyone together. Thank you all for everything.
