Homeless--Again

Tomorrow we leave Minnesota. Not the position we hoped we'd be in right now when we came here 4 months ago. I asked Kasey what she thought about the lack of stability in our lives right now, and her reply was that she is "kinda used to it after the last 6 years." Ouch. Being as we don't know where we are heading next, aren't sure when something is going to happen, or even if something is going to happen makes it too expensive to just continue waiting around. We started packing up and Ady asked why I was packing her toys. I told her that we were moving and would be taking them on a trip. She said, "Oh, we take the toys in the trailer to another place again?" Obviously my family has moved too much. So the question then is where do we go? Well we don't know. We are waiting on another possible deal, but have no idea the if/when thing. Kasey has been wanting to go East and visit her sister Melanie. So I called Melanie and asked if it would be okay if we visited her. She said that would be fine, and wanted to know when and for how long. I asked if it was okay if we came right away, and stayed for "a bit." So that is our new plan, we are going to visit Melanie and Ryan in Virginia. Were not exactly sure how long we will be there. Now I know that some of you may be wondering how that helps us figure out a new game plan or how that prepares us for the next challenge. Well to be honest, it may not. But we decided to go this route for now. We are heading East tomorrow at daybreak. Here are some pics of our last couple weeks in Minnesota.
Ady and Brock sitting on a log with leaves of various colors in the background. And yes, that is Ady's hood. She likes wearing her coats backwards.
This was the view from our living room window two nights ago. Definitely going to miss those views.
And of course, the thing I will miss the most.

Hey, I said you could stay as long as you want. Of course you may not want to as we don't have tons of room, but...
we're excited to see you soon.

Yay for family! and yay for Virginia... Take advantage of all the tourist attractions.... or you could always move to Samoa???? haha! call the local college, im sure they could use you as teacher for anything your good at.... You'll be paid minimum wage as a college professor here, but life doesn't cost much here! And the outdoor life here is awesome!

Hey! Ady is a trooper. I think Tyson is not going to like moving next year. You're welcome here as well.

Good luck in your travels! Enjoy the time together with family now. AFter Ady starts school, it will be harder to get away for those family trips.
