- after traveling together in Life Action Ministries for 9 months and spending practically all day every day together, Don and I had not seen each other for 60 days!
- Don who is NOT a morning person woke up at 5 or so to get on the road from MI to IA, and thus arrived blissfully earlier than I expected.
- I was so keyed up to see Don again and be held by him, that rather than run out to the car to greet him, I ran to the basement to be alone after instructing my mom to send him my way once he got inside. Weird to some, but that moment was so precious to me, I was in no mood for an audience.
- Many family members were traveling
- We loaded all my belongings into a trailer hauled out by Don's sister and her husband. I was so sure I needed the big trailer they brought out, but in truth I could have fit all my stuff in the smaller trailer they were thinking of bringing in the first place.
- Our nephew Tyler made the now historic quote, "I don't want to see any more silos!!!" (the first million had been exciting and helped pass the long trip. After that they lost their charm)
- Don's grandmas were still alive
- All my siblings were much younger, as were Don's nephews.
- Life was a lot simpler, and less complicated
- We were so sure it couldn't get any better, but in all reality the beauty we beheld then was just the "earth bound caterpillar"

Aww Happy Anniversary, Sarah! Gosh, 11 years ago?! The only problem with that, is that I remember you NOT married...and that does not seem like 12+ years ago!
Earthbound catepillar :) I like that!
It doesn't seem that long ago. The catepillar turned into a butterfly and flew by quickly. It blossomed and was beautiful just like your love for one another. To many years to come may the Lord keep blessing you both.
