Home sweet home...

Well, we have made it home safely! Praise God! And on the way home I got what I was craving all week-FOOD (haha-but seriously I had Steak n' Shake and it was delicious) It was a LONG trip to get back to the US and I don't know about everyone else but i'm having a little bit of culture shock :( I had a 2 hour breakdown today in my closet when I couldn't find a hanger because I have so many different outfits. I ended up making a hug pile of stuff to give away. So, i guess it was a good thing. I haven't attempted to drive, go to the grocery store, or work yet. Anyway, I just thought I would give a little update. Also I made a list of things I am grateful for when I was in Cambodia and now is a good time to share. Hope you enjoy...
