Yes, sorry it has taken so long to post another blog. We have had a busy twelve days since returning to the U.S.! A special thank you to the James family for hosting us through our jetlag~the only time the Johnstons will ever be up BEFORE the James' in the morning, I might add. (Smile.) Flying first to Chicago had it's other benefits as well~for we got to spend time with Nana and Papa Johnston, Auntie Beth and Uncle Bill and the Berg and Ahrenholz families. We are so thankful for each one of you!
Now we are camping out at MY folks house, enjoying every minute of it. The girls are making a 'city' in the field, where Nanna has mowed 'roads.' They are dragging out lumber to build with and are thoroughly happy. Another first, being allowed to ride the horses, by themselves, in the 'soft' field. A real treat for Claire and Julia.
It is good to be back in the U.S.~for one, I love being near family again! I like the roads, (much more room to drive!) customer service, better gas prices (believe it or not) and some actual warm weather. It now feels like summer for us.
All are eager to hear British accents in our children, and there is still a bit there, but they are quickly reverting back to match their peers here. They still use much of the british vocab, however, and I am reminded often that 'so and so did not do that properly!'
Well, friends, keep in touch with US. We miss all of our dear Cambridge friends, and are eager to keep catching up with our Minnesota friends.
I will try to be more faithful to write in the days to come~thanks for your patience!

Great to hear from you! I'm on the computer after quite an absence. Do let us know when you know anything. James has been so eager to hear. I think he misses Jim.
So glad to hear you have adjusted so smoothly to being home! We can't wait to see what God has planned for you here. Don't forget to look in Colorado....it's not too far from family! Can't wait for the day we can all sit around a table eating cheesecake (Dave loves to tell the story of this wonderful lady who wanted to test her cheesecakes on him!) catching up!
Much love! Sha
Thinking of you and praying!
Did your van sell?
Hello! I check every day for a new post, just in case you think you've been forgotten here.
I hope that your life is so full of wonderful things that you don't have the time to post!
How are you? I would love to know. Thinking of you lots!
