New places and spaces

So we moved into the official Vicarage almost 6 weeks ago. I'm not sure where the time has gone but I'm sure that we are settling in. Only a handful of boxes remain and those are exclusively mine. We have done some minor improvements to the house and for the first time, as I was driving home from a few days away for a work trip, it felt like home. It felt like I was driving home. I haven't felt that way in a very long time. It was so wonderful to arrive home to the home we are making our own. The kids are loving having a huge yard to play in, a porch that sold us on the house, and a nice quiet street to ride their bikes. 

We have been embraced warmly by both parishes and communities. Although things are new we are enjoying getting to know the parishoners in the two communities that the Vicar serves as well as getting to know the community in which we live. We hope that as we continue to find our way and niche into these communities that we continue to learn and thrive. 

Thank you to everyone who has supported us during this time of transition and those who continue to support us. We love y'all and hope that you know you are always welcome to come visit!
