Well folks, this is it - our last few hours in the States!  The past few days have been full of packing up our lives here and making sure we remembered everything we need.  It's been a bit stressful but we did it!  We are meeting up with both of our families at the airport in just over an hour to say our final farewells.  This moment has seemed so far away for so long, and now that it's here, it's a bit surreal. 

We want to thank everyone for your support and encouragement.  We have tried to see and talk to everyone we could over the past few days.  We know there are some friends and family that we didn't get the chance to see or talk to, and we are very sorry for that.  We will be back home in Michigan for about 2 weeks in the middle of June, so hopefully we can catch up with many of you that we didn't get to see before we left!  Again,thanks for the amazing show of love, support, encouragement and prayers that you all have sent our way. 

We look forward to sharing our journeys and travels with you!
