It has been a bittersweet last few days. As we are saying our final goodbyes, we are reminded what a blessing that living in Arizona has been. Saturday night we were overwhelmed with joy and love, as more than 200 people came to our home to send us off. Then tonight, was our gathering of our family fellowship that has been a second family to us over the years. This group of 9 families, has blessed us in more ways than we could ever imagine. Looking back at how this last month has shaped an amazing testimony for our family, is overwhelming. As we get ready to head out on our new adventure on Thursday, we are so excited to see what this new chapter holds, but at the same time saddened that our old memories are coming to a close. As far as packing... we are almost there! We are very happy to have found a house to rent in LO for a short period so the transition will hopefully be smooth. We will get in town just in time to go school shopping (Hooray!) and then my mom is taking Max and Sydney and I up to British Colombia to serve at a Young life Camp for Military families with our new church River West. It will be a great opportunity to meet new friends before the school year. Thursday should be interesting as we are heading out with 2 cars filled with 5 people, 3 cats, and more suitcases than we can count, a U-Haul filled with boxes, and memories of things and people that we will never forget, we are very excited, and praising the Lord each step of the way.
