We're in Colorado, safe and sound. We are staying with one of the staff members, and we have the entire downstairs of her house, which includes three bedrooms, a bathroom, and a living space. We were really blessed in that area. Today is the first day of DTS. It's going well so far, but Lydia is having a hard time with being separate from Mom.
Driving from New Mexico from Colorado, our trailer popped a tire. We unhooked the trailer, drove to a town, and got a new tire. Dad was getting discouraged when it took a couple of hours to start to put the tire back on the trailer. Finally a man who worked on trailers for a living stopped, and he had everything Dad needed to fix the tire. I believe the man was sent by God-it's not everyday a really nice man who works with trailers for a living pulls over, has all the tools needed, and gives up an hour and a half of his time to help complete strangers. We were delayed four hours, but we're all here safe and sound, the trailer made it with all of our stuff, and we're jumping in to learning more about the Lord.

Pictures of the Trip


Here are the pictures I promised everyone, including some of the Alamo.

Greetings from Texas! We're finally down south where it's warm. Traveling with my family is quite interesting. When we entered Kentucky, Lydia said "Are we in Chuck E Cheese?" Lydia also was glued to me the first day, wanting to sit with me the whole time. But the second day, she "didn't like me" anymore. Does that make sense to anyone?
Tomorrow we get to go see the Alamo. I'm pretty excited. So our sightseeing begins! There hasn't been much to see until now, except for the swamp and alligators in Louisiana. We actually camped right next to the swamp and heard the alligators barking. It was awesome!
Hopefully I will have pictures up soon, especially of the Alamo. We only have internet when we stay in hotels.
Please remember to pray for my mom. She has a fever. We are hoping she'll be okay to go sightseeing tomorrow. Thanks!
