I have NO ENERGY!

I know that I should post to update everyone but I can't even wrap my brain around that right now..... I'm exhausted! So, I'll make it short and sweet...... we're moved in and getting settled. Our first night last night was a bit rough for Chris and I ...... it's so much nicer to sleep in the middle of the forest than across the street from a University! Pray for better sleep tonight ... I need it! On a more pleasant note ... it has been so great to have so many friends just stopping by to help or just say "HI"

And the wind changes again....

It seems that this season of our life will be quite the journey. Almost a year ago, we moved to Idaho and have loved it! The year has held a lot of questions and obstacles but we have grown together as a family and really rejoiced in the challenge. It seems though that our journey will be taking us back to California for a while. We were not able to have the business we had originally started in Idaho and with the crazy economy, jobs are hard to come by and the pay is less than ideal. We are ready to move from my parents home but don't really see a way to do that with the current economy. So, with lots of prayer and amazing doors opening to help us make the decision..... we are packing to head back to California. We truly hope that it will only be a year or so before we can come back to nature where we feel so at home. We don't know God's plan and thats okay, He continues to take us down the path of unknown and He continues to sustain us in spite of our lack of vision for the next step. We are enjoying the journey and so grateful for how He provides. Although we are sad to leave Idaho and our friends here, we feel so blessed we get to return to a place that is familiar and full of love and support from family and friends. So, our journey continues and our prayer is that we are seeing God's purpose along the way.... how do the DeWitts fit into the ultimate plan for God's kingdom during this part of the journey?
