post #3 from the road...

as we prepare to leave the great state of minnesota, we pause to reflect on the last few days... we are so amazed at the way God has blessed us and taken care of us... not just in the traveling mercies He granted but also the fellowship we have had with family and friends...

the first picture is of mark (gwens cousin), janine (his wife), travis and hayden...and buster too(dog)... we stayed with them the first two nights here in minnesota and had a great time swimming, talking, seeing llamas, eating, and just relaxing in their beautiful home...

the next picture is of ethan at the zoo... eating his highly anticipated snow cone...(it was actually de-lish he wanted me to have the same... so i did... we also shared with mom...)

then we got abby posing as a grizzly bear outside the zoo gift shop... ( the zoo excursion with our friends the aldridges from chicago)... the miller kids pose with kate and tom ouside the zoo foodcourt...

next pictured is abby and noah standing with a stormtrooper at the science museum of minnesota... they were having a star wars exhibit... so of course we had to go...(also with the aldridges)


the last photo for today is of me and cole with our mad faces on... but hey... what do you expect... we were standing next to darth vader...

anyways...

off to iowa in the morning so i better get to bed...

sweet dreams to all who peruse this blog...

Oh wow, it looks like you guys are having TONS of fun!! Road trips can be trying with a car-full, but it doesn't look to me like you guys are finding that to be the case! Being away with family is the best :) I'm glad you got this time together, and we are praying it's a safe trip all the way around!
