God Bless America, Land that I Love.....

Well.....Our last and final stop...Washington, D.C.
After almost 2 years of traveling, we have decided that D.C. will be it before we move home and "settle down," whatever that may mean.
We have been here since mid-August and will be here until around the end of November.
What an exciting time to be here during this historical election year.

So, after a rocky start in getting to D.C., we are finally feeling more settled. My traveling nursing company dropped the ball on our housing the day before we were planning to leave. The day we left, we had no housing set-up. We actually almost backed out and didn't go. However, God is faithful, and provided us with an awesome place to stay until we found our own apartment.

Mike and Michelle Thress and there 4 kids, Zachary, McKaleh, Gabrielle, Simeon. They are from Knoxville, and Mike and Michelle actually did our premarriage counseling 3 years ago. Mike had a job opportunity to move to DC for about 2 years. We stayed in their finished basement. It was such a blessing to live with them.

"God who gave us life gave us liberty....these liberties are the gift of God.."
Being here as really made me fall in love with our country. Not to sound cheesy, but Thomas and I are so thankful to have been born in such a blessed nation. People come here from all over the world to see all the sites in D.C. For those you who haven't made it to D.C. yet, put it on your "places to travel" list.
