One more week!

Our house is slowly transforming into more of a warehouse than a home! We've packed close to 100 boxes and still have a few more to go!

The past couple of weeks have been busy not only with packing, but also with a myriad of other things: 10 dentist appointments, 4 Dr. appointments (those 14 appointments probably added up to 30 hours in spent in waiting rooms), 1 minor outpatient surgery, a "going away" party for the teens, farewell visits with friends and Stephen's family, and a garage sale. Add to that the regular household happenings of a family of 12 (laundry, house cleaning, meals, etc.) and it all makes for a busy time at our house!

Our plan is to have the house completely packed by this Friday. Stephen will pick up the moving trucks Fri. afternoon and we'll load Saturday. We'll camp out in the house Saturday night and leave Tuscaloosa Sunday after church. We'll travel as far as we can push ourselves Sunday afternoon and evening and finish the trip on Monday.

Mom's got lots of checklists for the days ahead so this week should be lots of fun!!!

It's exciting to see God's hand at work in all this even though it's sad to see you go so far away. May your trip go smoothly and may God's grace be exceedingly abundant in these next hours and days!

Love you!
