We're Finally Home!!!

Well we've finally moved into our new home! I haven't had much time to take any final pictures, but I have a few of the carpet and cabinets in some of the rooms that I can post until I get some new ones up. We made the transition this past weekend with much help from our family, and we spent our first night in the house on Monday night. The only family members who have yet to join us are our fish and Flash (the turtle). They're still hanging out at Grandmama and Grandpa's house, probably until Sunday afternoon. The baby shower at the church is this Saturday, and we've got lots of Charlotte family coming in as we speak to be with us. So we're hurriedly trying to put a few finishing touches on the house so it will be ready for company. Here are a few other interesting things of note with us recently: this week is my third anniversary working at the County (although it feels like longer), and this week Cody accepted a new/old job, working back with the Witts at G&K Nursery in Ellisville - I told him that maybe the third time's the charm! He worked there in high school, and then went back for three years or so before taking his current job with Chestnut Hill. What seemed like a very stressful situation in the beginning turned out to be a true blessing from God. He's provided for us over and over again in ways that never cease to amaze me. We were looking around for jobs because his current one wasn't working out, thinking all along he would probably have to take a pay cut. But now we've ended up with something where he'll be making more money than he is currently, and we'll be saving money on gas because he's only about five miles from work! I'm excited because that means he'll be able to come home for lunch and spend time with me and the baby while we're home. And he won't have to keep working every Saturday so we'll have our weekends back together. God is good, huh? There's just no denying it around our house these days.
