Getting Ready to Move!!

For those of you who do not know... we are moving to Arusha! Back to the place where we started out in Tanzania. The Lord has worked so many things out to make this move possible. We are excited for what is in store, even though this is not we set out to do here but we are faithful to His calling and His plans. Please pray with us as we will be making this move in the next few weeks. There is a mission house there for us to live in and a good school for the kids to attend. Please pray for favor as we are looking for safe, reliable and cheap transportation. The kids are finishing up school here and saying their goodbyes soon. They will miss Dar, the friends and the opportunities that they have been given here. Transition is not always easy... but the kids are really excited and hopefully will love their new home and life there. Here are a few pics of packing up and of our house we will remember.

Pyramiding the boxes! Before it starts....


Little by little, slowly slowly it was put away!


About now. All the upstairs is cleared out. The kids use that for playing soccer in. Its ever so fun playing in an empty house!! We have filled up the living room with everything waiting to be put in the truck.

Pics of our house that God gave us for this season. It looks great but this baby is so FAR out of town because it was the cheapest we could find to fit our budget. It is close to the school, beach and a greek farm where we got fresh milk for this year and a half. It has fit us fine, but so glad that our next house is only one story... if you know me you know I don't like big houses. We could all sleep in the same room if we had too, and I would love it! (much to Nicks chagrin. :) I like all my eggs in the same basket! It has been great for entertaining guests and for hosting people! Thank you Lord for this blessing for this time!!





I will miss the tropical decor!
