Home Sweet Home!

Friday was crazy! We went to the Denver Zoo and it was awesome then went to get groceries at Target and then take back the rental cars by 6pm- we got caught in traffic and so time was tight- I told the kids in my minivan that when we dropped them off to worry about getting all the stuff out of the middle of the van and Elke would do the back of the van- well these kids worked together crazy and unloaded the vans in a matter of seconds :-) One of the Amtrak workers was laughing saying that was the quickest he'd ever seen vans get unloaded!! We made it to Hertz at 5:58pm! Then came back to the station to find out that our train would be arriving closer to 11:30pm. Well it ended up that we didn't roll out of the station until 3:09am! The kids were so patient and great! We pulled into the Union Station in Chicago around 2am and Jeff, Donny, and Carlena were there with smiling faces to greet us and take us back to the church! We finally pulled in to Calvary around 4am and seeing parents was a wonderful sight! Thank you Thank you Thank you for your prayers- we could feel them everyday in many ways! I hope to add more pics and debrief a bit more later- thanks again! God Bless
In His Army,
