We are Cheese Heads!

We are officially residents of Saukville, Wisconsin. I spent this morning hanging out in Carol’s Coffee shop, what is sure to be my new haunt, talking with some new friends. We are settling in to our new neighborhood.

We had a rough couple of days transitioning to life in Wisconsin. In fact the night we arrived we couldn’t find our street. The reality hit us that we were about to be living on a street we had never been to in a house we had never seen. We were all a little overwhelmed the first night and into the second day. In fact we discussed just not unloading the Uhaul and turning around and going back to Arkansas. Thank God we didn’t.

Our friends Bill & Cathy, Dave & Sue, and Tim & Lisa came on Sunday and moved us in. They hoisted all our heavy junk, including a piano, up and down two stories and a basement. They even brought us homemade food and gave us a love gift from New Life Community Church. God has so blessed us by having friends like those at New Life.

After the first couple of days here Bailey and Maizey have already made several friends. The kids on our block all come out and play after school everyday. We live at the top of the tallest hill in our neighborhood. Needless to say that attracts all kinds of kids on bikes and skateboards.

The neighbors have been great. Coming over and welcoming us to the community, bringing us bread and treats for Tallulah. There is a real community feel in this area. I’ve already met some great people and think I will meet many more.

I start sometime in the next couple of weeks with UPS working as a Driver Helper over the holidays. Hopefully that may turn into something full time. Thanks for all your prayers family and friends. We are reaping the results of them like never before in our lives. And, I say that from the bottom of my heart. We love you and will keep you posted. By the way, it has been in the 70s but we are due to get some snow on Friday…Here we go with our 1st Wisconsin Winter.

Here we are in front of our Townhouse. We have great Landlords. John and Sue. Say a prayer for them this week. John is battling Leukemia and Sue is having surgery tomorrow. I think we have landed exactly where God wanted us to be. God bless.
