Giving Iowa a Try

Jotting down a quick post from Des Moines, where my good friends James and Katie Borton have graciously put us up for the night. Meant to leave at 10 this morning, but a few separate incidents set us back a couple hours. That was a frustrating time--tense time in the car, too--but things improved and it was smooth sailing after that. I made good on my desire to have some more serious conversation time, and we had some good talks about our family and things we're dealing with. That wasn't always perfectly pleasant, but definitely a blessing; I'm excited for how God's going to work this summer with me and my sisters.

We also got a chance to sing together a bit, which is something I'd definitely been looking forward to. We're a pretty musical family, but we don't get a lot of chances to be musical together. So we chose a few songs and practiced them. It sounded pretty good, if I don't say so myself, and I might just see fit to post that at some point. :)

Got to the Casa de Borton around 8:30 local time and had some delicious food cooked by our excellent hostess, and consumed it while watching recent episodes of Big Bang Theory, Glee, and (of course) Mythbusters. They rammed two cars together, and it was good.

Hopefully I'll get a video up tomorrow, in addition to easier-to-access print. Until then, dear readers!
