since we moved from Florida to NC. \u00c2\u00a0We made most of the drive up last May 14th, spent the night, and then drove in on Saturday, the 15th. \u00c2\u00a0A lot has happened since then.<\/p>\n

Randy changed jobs (which caused the move in the first place)<\/p>\n

Adopted our 6th child, Dylan<\/p>\n

Various kids have been in the hospital\/ER and we’ve dealt with 4 surgeries.<\/p>\n

Our oldest is driving now, in preparation for her permit. \u00c2\u00a0Gulp.<\/p>\n

Something that hasn’t changed: \u00c2\u00a0we’re still in our rental home AND our home in Florida is still for sale (though, thankfully, being rented at the moment). \u00c2\u00a0As we heard in church today, God holds all time.<\/p>\n

We’ve found a church home, made many amazing friends, and seen God’s hand in this move countless times.<\/p>\n

Last year this time, we were expectant that God would bring blessing with this move, but we were also scared out of our wits. \u00c2\u00a0To be honest. \u00c2\u00a0Looking back, it wasn’t always easy – it was downright hard at times. \u00c2\u00a0But, here we are.<\/p>\n

And now, since I hate to post without pictures…<\/p>\n

Marley convinced me to go out to yard sales yesterday morning. \u00c2\u00a0Even though we had to leave at 11am for a trip to Raleigh and we weren’t exactly ready. \u00c2\u00a0But, we did well and I found this for the littles.<\/p>\n

They were asking $10, I offered $8 and he even helped me load it into the van. Came with lots of erasers, chalk, dry erase markers, and magnets. \u00c2\u00a0I love a good deal.<\/p>\n

I guess, after today, I can’t say we’re new to NC. \u00c2\u00a0Which is fine with me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
