1 Week Out!!

Wondering what life has been like for us since our last post? .... CRAZY!!!
A small portion of the stuff we sold at our huge moving sale.

God was gracious to give everything we asked for: perseverance, sunshine, and buyers!

The room post-moving sale :)

Until we filled it with our Africa stuff.

Michael's mom, Lois, has been a packing machine... fitting as much stuff as she can into these bins. We will be traveling with about 25 pieces of luggage! Anything that can't fit into those can't come to Africa

We've been eating tons of fast food. We're packing it in to hold us over for the next few years! :)

The men in red working day 2 of the moving sale.

Squeezed in some time amidst the sale to visit and say goodbye to my sisters who drove two days for just one full day with us. That's pretty awesome! :)

Noah's best bud from CT dropped in for the weekend to surprise Noah! His final words as he drove away to the airport were, "You'll be in my prayers." :)

We said some goodbyes at a little farewell get together.

The kids had to say some goodbyes, too.

Enjoyed a fun weekend with Michael's parents and some friends who drove in from Illinois this past weekend. Had some
down time before the madness of this last week. Saw the movie "Unconditional" ...a must see!
hTis is our poster-size calendar/to do list for the next 6 days!! ... yes, it is taped to our wall :)
There's a glimpse into what we have been doing these past couple weeks. We sure could use your prayers at this point... wondering if we have time to get it all done by Oct. 2nd, but trying to trust!
