God Bless America: 10 Things We Love
Things we’ve enjoyed during our first three weeks in the US that we definitely don’t have or get to do in Spain:
1. 110+ servings of Quaker Oats in one box:

2. Triscuits:

3. Baby carrots:

4. Roasting marshmallows and making s’mores:



5. The Presbyterian Resale Shop in Valparaiso, Indiana. Nate said, “I didn’t know you could re-sell Presbyterians – I wonder how much it costs to buy a used one?”


6. SpaghettiO’s:

7. The Jelly Belly Factory in Wisconsin:



8. Going to the Chicago Fire soccer game on Father’s Day:

9. Chicago-style stuffed pizza:

10. Taking the kids to Wheaton College:


It’s been a full three weeks visiting with friends, family, and partners. We’ve enjoyed it all. In a couple of days we leave the Chicago area and move on to the Quad Cities, St. Louis, and Colorado. Fun fun!
