We are still alive!
Our family has been in transition mode for a while now. To top that off, I (Scott) have been preparing for my check ride for My Pilot License.
We have made several trips up tp Michigan to share with our friends what the future looks like for our family. We had wanted to get to Maryland, and missouri, but have ran out of time!
If all goes well, I should pass my check ride on Friday, then jump in to the mix of loading the moving truck. Lela and the boys have been doing an awesome job of purging, packing, and getting things ready!
Hopefully we will have some more picture up here soon. We will also try to blog frequently on the journey to Alaska as we drive over 4000 miles on the edge of winter!
More later...

Our Time in Michigan!!
We are in our home state of Michigan and loving it! It is a crazy time with all of the meetings and all but it is such a joy to see so many people that we love. We are speaking at Faith Temple tonight at 7 p.m. in Brighton and at the moment, hanging out with Scott's mom.
We have many appointments lined up during the week. We need to raise an additional $1500 per month in support before we leave on September 21st. Our sending church has a policy that they will not send anyone out who is not 100% supported. We are at 83% now. We also need one-time gifts towards our moving expenses. So, we are praying that God moves in His incredible ways and moves these mountains. We have a small window of opportunity to get to Alaska before the bad weather moves in and leaving on September 21st is the date that would give us the time we need to get there before October 1st.
Another need for prayer is that we would find the home that God would have us rent in Alaska. As of now, we do not have one. God knows all things and knows which house would best fit our family.
Shaughn is now 18, (as of Saturday 9/5), and Jeremiah is now 7, (as of Monday 9/7). We had a great time celebrating their birthdays with some company from MI. The Pohlman's came down and hung out with us for the Labor Day weekend. We all laughed so much and it felt so good. Great times and great memories.
That is about it for the moment. We will try to keep you all updated as we can. God bless you all!!
