Just short of 3000 miles! After celebrating the fourth of July with family, friends, and burgers, we embarked on our journey to our new home. On the morning of July 5th, we said our last goodbyes to Washington. As someone who does not love road trips, I expected the journey to be stressful, but it … Continue reading Our first month in Fayetteville!
This has probably been one of the most challenging seasons of my life. I have had the privilege of seeing many of my dreams come true, but I have also seen my entire world crumble.
