Almost Ready to Move!

A lot has happened since the last post. School is finally over! I have both mechanic's certificates now: airframe and powerplant. It is so nice to be done with that phase!

We are finishing up the packing as we prepare for the move to Waxhaw, NC on Friday, the 27th. Since JAARS housing has provided us with a FULLY FURNISHED apartment including linens and dishes, our move is going to be relatively easy! We only have to take our clothes and a few personal things.

My parents have offered to trade us cars for the time, so we have a minivan now that we are soon to be a 6 member family! That is a huge blessing! And since I am going to be working so close to home, we only need one car, another blessing! We are so grateful to God that he is working out the details of this time for us so nicely!

We have begun the very sad process of saying goodbye to our loved ones here. Today was our last meeting with our congregation. We got through it fairly well. My mom threw a little going away party for us and my sister and brother in law from Winter Haven were able to make it as well as my brother in law who is visiting from Dubai as well as those family members who live here in Tampa.

This is a nice warm up for us as we will only be gone 6 months this time and back for at least 4 months as we understand the process so far.

There are still a few things that need to be worked out, but we are relying on God to continue going before us as he has been so faithful so far.
