Living out of boxes...


This is us. We are living out of boxes.

But life is good!

In one short month we have completely transplanted our life and are beginning a new life. When I look back on the details of the way everything has played out, I know that God both initiated and organized every step. I love that He cares about the details of our lives...

There is so much left to do, but I am thankful to have the month of July to get settled.

It's so nice to see family on such a regular, casual basis. What wonderful opportunities that I hadn't realized I'd been missing.

My goal is to be completely settled by the 11th because I have a meeting at school on the 12th, and I want to focus on getting my classroom ready at that point. I continue to be very impressed with this school system, and I can't wait to begin this leg of my career.

And we continue to get settled one box at a time...

Oh, it's so good to get an update. I sure do miss you and it's just gonna be weird when I go back to work and you aren't across the hall anymore. I'm so happy though that you sound so happy!

Yeah...it took us a few months to get completely out of our boxes! Oh wait...we're still not completely out of our boxes... :-)

Glad it's going well--gives me hope! I also liked what you said about God initiating and organizing every step. We feel that way, too, and it makes the move much less stressful. Happy Fourth!

I'm glad you're getting settled in. I love bochee ball!! We always play at the beach, and we bought our own set a couple years ago to play here. I didn't know Lindsay was having a girl! I know you are all excited!
