Closing chapter

This week finds us drawing things to a bit of a close here in Scotland. As I write this, Heather is rounding off her last day as a piano teacher in Perth & Kinross, and Abi and Matthew have just had their last session at The Honeypot Nursery.


Abi and Matthew say goodbye to some of the staff at Honeypot.

Our flights are booked for the 12th November; two weeks tomorrow! Although nursery and work are drawing to a close this week, we have a busy fortnight ahead as we get ready for the off!

This weekend we are heading over to Dunoon. It will be good to spend a bit of time with my family over the weekend before we leave for Ohio.
Heather has also been given the opportunity to play and sing at www.seasonsdunoon.com on Friday night, so she has been busy excercising her vocal cords for the past wee while, getting herself ready for that. On Sunday we will be spending some time with friends at Dunoon Baptist (the church where Heather and I met), before heading back up to Glasgow for a couple of days. Next week we will be spending a bit of time in Pitlochry. The removal company are coming for two days at the end of the week to pack all our stuff into a van for the first leg of it's transatlantic journey, then we have a few things planned to catch up with some friends up there. If you are free on Sunday morning (7th Nov) we will be taking part in the service at Pitlochry Baptist, then having a lunch afterwards for anyone who wants to stay.
In the afternoon / evening we'll be heading north to see some relatives in Gardenstown, before heading back to Glasgow to get ready for flying out on the Friday of that week!!

We had hoped we would be able to catch up with all our friends and family again before we head off, but time is just disappearing in front of us! The next fortnight is jam packed with trips around Scotland, but it would just be impossible to meet up with everyone, so if we don't see you before we go, thank you so much for your interest in what we are doing! Thanks for the many ways you have been supporting us, and please keep in touch as we head over to Ohio!

This is my command - be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1v9
