Getting Adjusted...

All the boxes are moved and most are unpacked. It has been an exciting week for the Phelps family. Here is our story.....and we’ll stick to it!
It all started last Saturday as we moved all our belongings on to our driveway in Mount Vernon. We said “see ya later” (not goodbye) to loved ones and friends and loaded up 3 trailers and the van and set off to start our new normal in Paducah, KY.
The kids have done GREAT!!!! I was truly worried about how they would adjust but as we know prayer works and they have done just fine.
Bryan and I are great as well. We had our first date with the church staff Thursday night, yes the kids actually stayed with sitters at the church, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Now, the rental house on the other hand leaves much to be desired. Well, it isn’t all that bad. We are so blessed to have a house and not an apartment, and we are so thankful for that but it has had it’s problems and has made our first week one we not forget....ever! The basement has flooded, the dishwasher leaks, the light in the basement sounds like it could start a fire at any minute....it makes me laugh now when I think about it all. But even in the midst of it all we still feel the peace of knowing we are where God wants us and feel blessed and fulfilled. The message on Sunday was so encouraging and just confirmed again that our visions are one in the same. God is So Good!
As we continue to settle in we are excited about this journey God has called us to. This is truly a place where life long friends will be made and a place where we will add to the list of people that have blessed our lives.
