We're moving...WHAT?

Yeah, so Christmas was amazing!  Went to the Smokie Mtns. with my Harris family and had a great time!  Came home and on December 27th, Steve's application for Lieutenant , which has been submitted since September, was pulled and by January 1st, we were told they called and check his references. On January 8th, 1 week later, we were told "Congratulations Lieutenant Sherman, you have been promoted and are moving to Lewisburg, Pennsylvania!"  HOLY SMOKES....

As if the changes these last 2 months weren't enough, we are now moving 22 hours and 1,400 miles North...:D

To say we are excited would be an understatement...scared doesn't even begin to describe it!  We cant be worried though because God is ordering our steps...Every step we have taken up until this very moment has been God ordained and we are simply walking through the doors as they open.

We leave, February 1st for our 10 day house hunting trip.  Flying into Pennsylvania for the first time and visiting some churches, looking into a PO Box, new checking account, visiting the prison, looking at some houses, etc.... They have an Ice carving festival that weekend also and we are hoping to get to enjoy that!

I feel like I just did all this...hm mm 

Here are a few pictures of the place we are about to call home...



We are having bittersweet moments when it comes to leaving our life here in Southeast Texas.  Family, friends, church, school, etc.  At times my heart skips when I think about the area, the snow, the idea of a new location, new home, new, New, NEW.... and with the next heartbeat I can feel it breaking because we are leaving so much behind! 

Will be posting more pictures after we go there and see it for ourselves.  Continue to pray for us as we make more decisions and venture into new areas.  Pray for our boys, they are my main concern.  Want them to transition smoothly and happily!  God is good and never fails....

The Journey continues.....
