Moving In!!!

Just look at that view! Across the road are rolling hills with cattle grazing on them.

There were some long tables in the garage when we arrived. They belong to the local fire department. We made due with one of them and the chairs from the camper until our dining table arrived.
Sadie and Emile are sleeping in Daniel's room until their ceiling can be repaired. It's quite a bit bigger than his last room ; )
This is the "master bedroom" and the "master" air mattress
Sadie and her daddy journeyed down to Florida to get our gooseneck aka the long, long trailer.
Most of the shop stuff is out, now to the beds!


Sadie and Patrick left here Monday afternoon to head down to Florida. They arrived in Arcadia Tuesday night. It was a short, but pleasant visit with my parents. Wednesday they traveled to Alturas where the long, long trailer has been stored since June. The Discher family supplied them with a delicious meal and wonderful conversation. Dessert was served at the Frodges' where they also got to visit with the Stricklen family. They spent the night at the Frodges' before heading out Thursday morning. Two long days on the road and they arrived home Friday afternoon before 6:00 pm.

Now to the unpacking!! It is like Christmas around here; putting away things we haven't seen in a year. So far, nothing is broken or too badly damaged. Last night, Daniel, Patrick & I slept in our own beds and we had dinner at our own dining room table.

Life is good and God is AWESOME! We are so happy with all that God has blessed us with, but when you think about it, it all pales in comparison to the Salvation He has given us and what He has for us in Heaven.

We sure enjoyed spending a little time with Patrick and Sadie. Glad that your trailer is safely WITH you all now! (hee!hee!) We can breath a little easier every time a driver backs down that road!
Your house and yard look great! It sounds like you will have a regular farm before no time.
