Home

I didn't know what home felt like until being gone for so long. Home feels awesome! Home feels like being able to drive to Bridgeport with Jeff to get used tires for his tractor. It feels like ruining Kim's internet power cord and having to wait all day for the repairman to show up. It feels like going to a t-ball game with Sara to watch my nephew knock one out of the park. It feels like surprising Leland and Irene over a Runza because they didn't even know we were back. Home feels pretty good.

We spent yesterday at Horizons Church. That was cool and a little surreal too. It was good to see so many familiar faces of friends. But, it was also a little too fast. My biggest shock, though, was seeing Brandon. He used to be a 4th grader I worked with in Discovery Zone. Now, he's 5'2" tall and has a deep voice. What the heck?

And who knew they brought yogurt shops to Lincoln? You can load your cup up as high as possible and then add toppings. Nice addition.

We were also able to get in a little shopping. Lisa is still not a fan!

These past few days have been a little like on the Matrix when Neo wakes up and finds himself in a whole new world. We hadn't planned on coming home. Then when it was a reality there were so many other things going on we couldn't think about being home. Now we are here and...well it's just strange.

Thank you friends and family (and of course Taco Johns) for being "home".
