The Final Chapter

Yesterday Dw, the kids, the dogs and I packed up to head to Colorado.
We barely stopped and had a lot of fun laughing and reminiscing.  
A sweet trip over all.
Little Miss Ruby did wonderful and was awake 
{with the exception of a 20 minute nap} the entire trip.
We are checking her often to make sure her {very open} fontanel is fine.
Her neurosurgeon cleared her to come, but we are watching closely.
We got to Pagosa in the nick o’ time as Autumn had her bridal shower last night. 
Such fun to see that precious girl of ours
opening presents in anticipation of the miracle wedding of the century.
We took tons of pictures, but the internet at the campground is s-l-o-o-o–o-w.
Savannah and Emmy’s best bud Destini joined us.
Such fun memories are being made!
Tomorrow Dw is officiating the wedding of a precious young orphan lovin’ couple who attended the church we pastored here.   They wanted to be sure that the world knows their hearts for the orphan are huge and so they requested that Jubilee, Isaiah, Elizabeth and Elijah would be in the wedding {not to mention that they were the most adorable little treasures this side of the Mississippi}!
Then Sunday Dw is speaking at a church in Bayfield, called Life Church.
The ‘party’ starts at 9:30am with church starting at 10.
If you are in the area, please come!
It will give me a chance to love on treasured friends whom
 I never got the chance to say good-bye to.  
They will also get to meet our little miracle Miss Ruby Grace.
Very odd to be back in town after 8.5 months!
Never would have guessed when Emma and I left for Africa that our world would change so much…and I would never return to our home or to the church we senior pastored for 7.5 years.
The winds are supposed to be 60-70 mph in Pagosa Springs tomorrow…
{and it’s already started up}…

Soooo, camping should be really interesting….

  1. Oh Linny, I'm so excited you are here! We recently started attending LifeChurch and I have stalked/lurked for a long time. When you suddenly moved to Phoenix, I have to admit that I was secretly disappointed because I had been hoping to meet you after you came back from getting Ruby and were settled. I can't wait to meet you tomorrow! Me, my husband and my 2 girls will be there! Yay! [Sorry, can you tell I'm super excited? 🙂 ]

  2. So excited you're in town! I'm sure it's good for you to be able to get some closure and to see friends. I wish I could see you. Left a message on FB though that Taeya's been throwing up. Don't want to risk getting any of you sick…especially Ruby! Know you're loved and I'm thinking and praying for all of you.

  3. I imagine it must be strange coming back and not to your old home, but what wonderful reasons to make the journey. So happy for Karl and Autumn, loved the announcement photo. So glad that Ruby is doing well. Praying for you all now.
