So, we pull up to the house, not knowing what to expect. God had brought us safely here through the storm and craziness of highway driving. Jenny (my sister) and Wally (her hubby) Bowden were waiting for us as pulled in to our development. Our rental house is on a lake and a cul-de-sac. Perfect so far, and we have not even seen the inside!

Our landlord shows up and gives us a tour…wow! We sign the papers and another part of the puzzle is in place. We take a breath and relax for a few minutes until we remember…we need to unpack! I pull the Escape off the trailer and we unload it and then I play the "back the big truck up" game once more. Our unloading party continued with Johanna (my other sister) and her son showing up (although Tyler didn't help very much…I know they are all under 4 but I was pretty disappointed in Tyler and Zachary and Ryan…I thought they would at least unload THEIR stuff!). Jonathan and Charissa showed up and I was very excited to see Billy, Tammy, and Zachary (their son) Moses be part of the party as well…It was so encouraging to have so much help! A few hours later, the truck was unpacked and we basically collapse once more… our first night in Jax!

Hard to believe that happened two weeks ago…we are getting used to the area and are loving the weather…we are excited to see what will continue to happen in our lives as we live in Jacksonville!
