Home Sweet Home....sort of

   Well, things have been crazy here at the Nelson house, so I apologize for the lack of blogging on my part.  We closed on a house a month ago and are just moving in now.  There was a big incident with a plumber and flooding and a hot water heater.  New carpet, flooring, etc... later and I can now say we are officially living at the house.  It is still a work in progress, but we hope to be settled in by mid-April.

   For us it is a joy to finally have a place to call home after having several temporary homes over the last 3 years.  And yet we still feel in many ways that we are not quite home, since we have no neighbors (we are the first ones in the subdivision), or friends here in town yet.  It is times like these we really miss our missionary friends from Ecuador and Costa Rica, and I especially miss my buddy Teena. 

  Since our family can't break away to come stay with us, we want to invite all our friends to come visit.  We have lots of room and the kids would love to have some friends to play with.  You really would not be imposing at all.  In fact, it would be a blessing to have you here.  So ya'll come now, ya' hear?
