We arrived safely in Indiana. I sure do miss you all, but for the short run, I'm working with a limited internet connection. I can't wait to update you. The weather is beautiful and the friends are bringing many smiles to my face! Yay...
In the meantime (until we "chat" again), keep those prayers comin'. Jeremy has an interview on Thursday. *Yay*...again.
I'll keep you posted. Miss you already...

Thank You, Mr. Penske...See You Tomorrow
Tomorrow we're getting up bright and early to head in to Tyler and pick up the moving truck. Do I hear a hip-hip-hooray?!
I miss my daily blogging, and by no means have I decided to stop just because my 30 days ended, it's just been a lil' bizzy around these parts.
No need to fret. Tomorrow we load Mr. Penske truck and come Friday morning, we're hitting the open road and trekking the 893 miles back home. Yes, home. (Aside: Please refer me to this post come February when I'm tired of dressing up like an Eskimo and hibernating in my house. Also, please remind me that it's no different from hibernating in the air conditioning in summer when it's 113 degrees outside in Texas. Because really...you can add layers when it's cold, but even naked doesn't keep you cool when it's 113!)
Anyhow, I'll try to pick things back up when we get settled in. It'll be a few weeks of transition. We're staying with my grandparents until Jeremy has secured a position in Lafayette. Then, we'll be moving in to our new home-- which will deserve an entire blog post itself. Such a cool God-thing!
If you will, keep those prayers coming for our family. Jeremy has a few upcoming opportunities that we're cautiously optimistic about. It's honestly a beautiful thing to rest in God's perfect peace. We trust Him.
I can't wait to get up there and kiss my kiddos, pinch my nephew's sweet cheeks, schedule play-dates for my two peas, share my heart over coffee with friends, open our home to friends to watch some Colt's football, start a crafty-night with my cousin and some other precious friends, enjoy get-togethers with family...the list goes on and on and on...and it makes my heart overflow with gratitude.
I also can't wait for my niece to make her grand appearance. Little Miss Crosby, we're waiting. ;)
OK, enough rambling for tonight. It's time to get some sleep. Tomorrow is going to be a BIG day.

There's More Than Corn...
You know you're singing the song (if you're from):
That's right. Consider this the "official" announcement. This Thursday (yep, as in 1-2-3-FOUR days from now), we're packing up the Penkse. And first thing Friday morning, we're queuing up the iPod and cruising down the road from Lindale back home to Indiana.
We can't wait to soak in time with our family and friends. Oh sweet joy...
I'll keep posting more details as I can, but for now all that I know is that for the first time in my entire life, I'm ready to drink in the rain, let the cool breeze sweep my hair across my face and just sit and be still with the Lord in the peace of the Hoosier countryside.
God is molding and shaping my heart into a new vessel. Ahhh...seasons. Sweet, sweet seasons.
