leavings

The big U-Haul truck is packed to the rafters.

Amanda said that not another thimble full would fit on the truck

when the movers closed its doors

a little while ago.

Goodbye

to the red brick house in Lanexa

for Mark & Amanda,

Jake & Eli.

Sadly,

They had to leave their cats behind.

The boys don't know yet...

I anticipate tears.

Amanda will teach her final Zumba class in the morning

and then be on the road...

a little behind Mark in the big truck.

There will be a great reunion tomorrow evening

for this little family

before they move on to their new life in Florida.

It has been our joy to keep Jake and Eli.

The Lord has been so gracious to give us this special

time together....

to keep us all well and strong.

Blessings to this family

as they go forward to the place God has chosen for them.

Never let it be said 

that you can't pick up and move in three weeks flat!

We did it.

Working together it all got done.

To God be the glory,

great things He has done.
