We're Off

 We're off!

I have been working incredibly hard getting ready to move and thus have not taken the time to update the blog -- but we are officially off and we have begun our Adventure headed North to Alaska.

We hope to make the trip in 8 days with Hubby's parents driving our truck, which is pulling one trailer, and Hubby and I driving our suburban.  The kids and our cat will ride with us, and our black lab will ride with Memaw and Pepaw.

I am not sure how often I will blog while on the trip, but I am trying to chronicle the trip through videos on Instagram Stories, so if you follow instagram, you can find me @mountainmillers

Thank you for your prayers as we are off on this very big journey.

Bubble Wrap

 I spend my days with lots of bubble wrap.

Support

 After a FULL day of packing as fast and furiously as I could, I finally sat down on the stairs while I was watching the children make their own dinner.  Within a minute, Brady had climbed up behind me and started rubbing my back.  Hunter was fast to follow Brady's example.

This move is big and it is challenging, but I have no doubt in my mind that our family will make the trip and find a home in Palmer with flying colors because our children are amazing tiny humans and we are supporting each other on this next adventure.

The back rub was amazing until Hunter said he saw an ant on my back and promptly slapped it (the ant...and my back) as hard as he could.

 

Good Words

 Good to Remember

Splint Off!

 Howard got his split removed earlier this week and we are thrilled!  No boxing for the rest of the summer, but the bone is healing wonderfully and he does not require for it to be immobilized any longer.

After fishing every day in Michigan, that split was getting gnarly... we washed it repeatedly but the smell of fish was still there.

Having a seven-year-old boy is not for the faint of heart.

Best Life

 This boy is happy.

Grammie's cinnamon bread in one hand, passie in the other.

This is his best life for sure!

Getting to Alaska...

 This picture is way too funny... and not really that funny...

LOL!
