"Finally, brethren, whatever things are true whatever things are noble, whatever things are just whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.

Just breath* no pun to Faith Hill*
We are slowly but surely going through the mountains of piles and boxes, plastic totes, so on so forth... Oh it is so much like Christmas around here.. Literally we have found things we FORGOT WE HAD and had not seen since 2006 when it was put into storage... Not much to write about it as I know everyone is like.. WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL?? Well all I can say to you is, if ya need to ask that question than obviously you were not around during the journey close enough to know, and that's OK!!!! You would just need to walk 4 years worth of miles in our shoes to understand.. SO thankful I say again to GOD and some very special people in our lives that helped make this happen... I could never express into words what we are feeling as a family and the wide range of different emotions... Funny story to share happened yesterday... Was making dinner and started *early* as I am use to cooking our meals ONE THING at a time due to lack of kitchen tools :) So I start with the pork chops, they bake, smell so good we are starving.. meanwhile I am working in the kitchen unpacking our 5 potato peeler's, 4 strainers, so on so forth you get the picture( Juliana I know this would drive you nuts :) ) They get done.. I leave them IN THE OVEN Move on to look for a plastic container to heat up the side dishes we wanted... I seen a glass bowl * gets excited* put the first side in and put it in the micro and waited til it was done.. looking for one more bowl for our second side.. *another squeal* found another glass bowl.. These look strange I FORGOT... It was while I was putting the baked beans into the dish, I burst ed out laughing, and kept laughing, and laughing.. Steve came into the kitchen with this bewildered look on his face "What is so funny?" I said WHY AM I COOKING IN SHIFTS IN OUR OWN KITCHEN WITH MOUNTAINS OF KITCHEN SUPPLIES AND IN THE MICROWAVE OF ALL THINGS??? He joined in and so did the kids... He said"Babe habit" That was so funny.. here I have our pots & pans & many other things to use and ......................... anyway thought I would share that humorous story. I want to hurry and get the house in order, for many reasons among wanting to start having everyone over... but I just can not help but sit and gently go through the boxes and take one thing out at a time and just THANK GOD for it and the memories that went and go along with it :) Trust everyone is having a GREAT week and remember... Keep praying for us, as we do you!! Love to all!!
