rózsa emlékek: Road Trip!

A few weeks ago we packed up our little CRV and made our way south to Louisiana, with a planned trip to Texas, too! We had been looking forward to this trip for quite some time and we were thrilled to spend Easter with our sweet friends, too! We had so many people praying for this trip and we definitely could feel those prayers!! The trip down was about 14 hours. We completed it with only two stops and spent a lot of time in slowed traffic. However, the girls hardly fussed and were content or slept most of the way. THANK YOU for praying!! Even this pregnant mama survived the long trip. We arrived in time for the Easter egg hunt at the Bevil's church in Monroe on Saturday morning. We then spent Sunday and Monday there, celebrating Easter and catching up on life. On Tuesday we packed up the car for another trip (this time it was only 6 hours!) over to Texas where we got to visit with our dear friend, Natalie. We had such a great time visiting with her and getting to experience her life in TX. We also got to spend some good time with her parents (whom we love!) and share about Hungary with their small group from church. It was such a great time of fellowship and we enjoyed meeting such great people who love the Lord. We were sad it was such a short trip as we had to pack up and head back out on Thursday morning to make it back to Louisiana in time for Viktor to share that evening, but it was SO worth the trip!!

The last couple of days in Louisiana were spent relaxing and visiting the Duck Commander warehouse (for those of you who don't know, google Duck Dynasty!). Such a fun time! On Sunday we went to church with some dear friends and supporters who had wanted us to go the last time we were in LA and couldn't. Again, we were so blessed by such loving people who are excited to hear about what God is doing in Hungary! After lunch we got back on the road and made it safely to our beds around 2:30am!!

It sure did seem like a whirlwind trip as we visited with so many people and covered so many miles, but we are so blessed to have had this opportunity to visit and share life with these dear people! Our hearts are filled with thanksgiving!!

Enjoy some pictures of our time in the south!

We enjoyed some beautiful weather!

Bevil soakin' up some sun!

The water table provided hours of entertainment for all three girls!

Relaxing at Natalie's...is this not the coolest "chair" in her living room. Super cozy. I wish I would've taken more pictures of her renovated/decorated home...pretty sure it should be in a magazine!
