We have been in our new home, and new (to me) home state, for just over 2 weeks. Â In some ways in seems much longer…but in other ways it seems like much less than 2 weeks! Â The unpacking is going well…slow at times, but it is happening! Â And we have enjoyed getting to know several families from church, and are very much looking forward to more time together very soon! Â We are so blessed to be here, and so thankful to the Lord for bringing us here!

Settling in
.
More empty boxes…
.
…and opportunities to practice patience with the ones that aren’t
.
.
Full bookshelves
.
…at home and at church!
.
Order oh-so-slowly emerging from chaos
.
The beginnings of a schedule!
.
A full week’s menu planned…
.
…and cooked – at home!
.
Flannel sheets
.
Hot chocolate on a rainy afternoon.
.
Getting lost…
.
and discovering the way home!
.
Fellowship
.
Like-minded friends
.
Shared convictions
.
Our new church family
.
Hymns
.
Solid Bible teaching…
.
…from my husband…and others
.
Listening to my husband reading bedtime stories to our daughter.
.
What a beautiful list. I always find it so helpful to stop in the midst of chaos and draw my perspective heavenward. It always gives me right perspective on everything around me!
Hi Whitley family=)
It is good to hear, and see, how you are settling in to your new home=) How is the adjustment going with new surroundings and new friends? We miss seeing all three of you. Ron has set-up a time for us to skype with Among Friends on Feb. 27th and though we will miss being able to see you then, we know that God is using you there for His glory. Do you have skype, once you have your computer all set-up? If so, it would be wonderful to talk sometime. Our ID is: timandjulie626.
Our love and prayers are with you! Give Hannah hugs from us and Anjali=)
Love,
Julie
