Home, Finally {Wordless/Wordful Wednesday} - Live and Love...Out Loud

Home, Finally {Wordless/Wordful Wednesday}

The last three months have been an amazing adventure – one filled with excitement, uncertainty and change. We tackled a cross country move from Missouri to Washington and embarked on an epic road trip adventure with four kids and pup. Following our arrival in Washington, we moved into a hotel – a hotel that would become our home for 11 long weeks as we feverishly searched for a new home. Who knew that finding a home would prove to be so difficult? I sure didn’t.

The last three months have been incredibly stressful, but I’m so excited to share that we’re finally home.

Home.

Where roots are firmly planted, memories are made and where laughter and love come to live.

I’ve kicked off my red Converses and calling Lake Chelan home. I’m so happy to finally be settling in.

You’ll understand my absence while I unpack, I hope.
