June 2020



Aaaaand we're back! I'm learning to use a Mac so everything is different....pics are scrambled everywhere but here are a couple that actually loaded! 

We're settling in to Florida life - winter is like spring & fall, and summer is basically like summer in Missouri with more rain. But it's cozy rain! It rains for maybe an hour in the afternoons, 3-4 times per week, then it's sunny & beautiful again. My health is also so much better here. Brent is happy to not have any yard or outside housework, and inside maintainance is pretty basic. We love the community pool & living right on the river, close to downtown, & 45 min to 1 hour from all the best beaches! We enjoy kayaking, climbing in the mangroves, biking in the neighborhood & on dirt trails, and getting together with other homeschool families. We've met some wonderful friends here, but also look forward to seeing our old friends again.





Zach & Julia with our grandbaby Techiya!!!  Road trip to see them very soon - gonna camp along the way & soak up the sights then camp when we get there. Goal is to spend as little money as possible while spending as much TIME as possible with our people :0)
