I haven't disappeared...

... but I may be MIA  in my blogging presence for the next few days weeks.

We've been on vacation (with forced technology fasting since I didn't have service-- it was probably a blessing).

And trying to make HUGE decisions for our future
(aka where to begin Joel's career).
 Prayer would definitely be a positive on that one :)


And we are packing.

and packing.


... and...



packing.

and trying NOT to stress in the process.

And then it'll be a final party with our Life Group.

And then it'll be Benefit Day.

And then our last Sunday.

And then a day of VBS for final farewells and fun.

And then...


Hawaii.



And hopefully my emotions from all the above and all that is yet to come won't overwhelm me, so that I can enjoy some of the beautiful creation that God has wondrously made there.

You can pray for that too. :)

Evenings will be spent with Joel and days will be spent hopefully relaxing while he presents research at a conference.



And then we will drive directly from the airport to North Carolina.

And I will finally get to see my boys after a week away from them!!!

And we'll unpack.

And unpack.


...and...


 unpack.


And then Joel will begin his fellowship.



And now you know the Virkler itinerary, Lord willing, until the end of July. :)


So if you think of us... say a prayer!! We'll be grateful.

And I'll try to sneak in and visit you guys.

But no promises...
