It Has Been Awhile

So I have decided that I need to be more vigalant on writing on this thing. I know it is a good way for me to document our travels for the kids. So we have been to Cavalier, North Dakota, West Helena, Arkansas, Minden, Louisiana over the past year and we are currently in Elko, Nevada. So I am choosing to skip writing about the past year and try to start with our current travels!!

Elko, Nevada is not a very interesting place except for the beautiful backdrop! The mountains are beautiful here, but there is not a lot of activities for the kids. We are trying to make the best of it despite a rough start. We took off the top of our camper, had reservations at the worst campground in the country, and had to stay in a hotel for a week! Things are looking better now!

We have met some wonderful friends here. Our closest friends here are from Illinois and they have been great. Dawn homeschools her nine year old son, Briar so Hunter has a friend to play with.....EVERYDAY!! No, it is good for him....and me too! Dawn has been a huge social support for me. This job has been hard because it is the furtherest away from home than we have ever been. It makes me sad with the holidays coming up, but I feel like we have met enough friends here to help us through!

I will be posting pictures as soon as I can get them all together!! We miss all of our friends and families very much, but are thankful for our pipeline friends!!
