home again home again.
Well here we are in the U.S. of A. Home again you could say, but that is a hard line to draw these days. Adjustment is hard, the pain of missing friends is real and we all left to our respective homes to deal with the changes without one another. Not only are we missing our friends who we will see again in the fall but we're missing the people we left behind that we won't see for an amount of time that only the Lord knows.

Leavin on a jetplane
Hiya guys!
Well it's 10:20 a.m. and we are packing up to head out. We have a devotional at 11, lunch at 12, and the bus gets here at 1.
I did, however want to post again and let you all know that you should still keep looking at the blog occasionally over the summer because we will be posting some follow-up blogs. Maybe even a video, and some photos.
It's been a crazy couples of days...well- weeks really. Lots of tears. Lots of laughs. The usual. Such is life, dear friends.
We have been blessed beyond measure this semester. I hope that we've been able to bless Uruguay in return.
Pray for our safety so we can be sweetly reunited with family and friends.
We just found out that some of our friends are riding with us to the airport. We are some of the more excited people on the planet.
It's hard to believe that a year ago this time we were preparing to leave Oxford. It feels like forever ago. As Jess and I have talked, we feel that the transition back home will be harder to make this time. We have both been learning so much here and have encountered and been a part of this culture at a different level than we did in England. We have deep personal connections here. It seems that the more we change homes, the less at home we feel in any one place, because we are always missing a little piece. But, hey- our citizenship isn't on this earth anyway.
We are excited to see the faces on the other side of that plane ride.
Hasta pronto,
Face

and a month later...
I give up. I hope this video isn't such awful quality that it's unwatchable. (made that word up.) Brazil
