I stopped blogging when I returned from Israel because the trip was over. It was an amazing journey and a fabulous vacation. What I have realized since July however is that life in and of itself is an amazing journey and just because THAT trip is over, it doesn't mean that all our trips are over. Disembarking from an airplane didn’t mean the end of our travels; rather it was just stepping off that stone and on to another.
I doubt that I will accurately be able to depict or describe the events of the last half of 2011 and the first part of 2012. Maybe I'll remember something or come across something I want to share and maybe I will travel back into recent memory to build on all we have to celebrate and enjoy....maybe. After all, the last few months have been a whirlwind and just plain ole' life as it happens.
