Arrival to Raton, NM - New Work Assignment

We were all home during the Christmas holidays which was very special! So awesome to be home in our OWN bed for a few weeks. Nathan came out to Raton to start work January 5th (Tuesday) and then drove back home to AR Jan 8th (Friday). He had taken out his truck and ended up bringing it back. Monday the 11th, he flew to NJ for some training and came home Wed night the 13th. Poor guy has been on the road.


Thurs, the 14th, we picked up our Uhaul and the expedition, which had been in the shop, and started packing our boxes. Thankfully we didn't have to take much furniture because our rental is pretty much furnished. I am taking a few things to make it more 'ours' and more homey. Men just don't understand that! Alderinks stopped by to help us...so thoughtful. Jim and Justin stopped by to say 'good-bye' and look at the possiblilty of working on the site in NM with Nathan. That would be fun.


Friday, the 15th, we finally got off! It was only 11 1/2 hours and the kids did great all the way to Raton! We got to unpack some on Saturday....of course we had a big incentive to get things done...we had special mtg company coming and a potluck on Wed the 20th!!! =)


Monday, January 18th, started the special mtgs in this area. We were able to drive over to Cimmaron, about 40 mins away, to Dave and Judy Hughes home for an evening mtg. This is Lori Bryans folks. Special to be so close to them.
