We are in Minnesota!! We had a couple intensive days of packing and cleaning up our apartment. On Tuesday we loaded up the truck and Julio and my dad drove it to MN. We have 8 suitcases we’ll be taking to Colombia, plus a few belongings we’ll be storing. Today my mom and I flew to MN with the boys. As Sam looked out the window he said, “Bye, bye Chicago. We’ll see you later.” Wow…saying good-bye is hard. But, we are so excited for what’s ahead, first here in MN and then in Colombia. Right now, I just need 2 days of rest and relaxation. Thank you all for your prayers and words of encouragement in this major time of transition.

The truck is packed and we're leaving Chicago.
