Settling in Vandalia

This is now my kitchen. This room along with most of the house is practically new. It has new plumbing, electric, a/c, appliances, windows, flooring, cabinets, doors, fixtures, and paint. It is absolutely fabulous!

We moved our stuff from the basement to the main floor Saturday night with the help of at least ten men. It was almost frightening the intensity that these men displayed! We kicked everyone out around 3:30 p.m. and began unpacking and settling in.

Saturday evening we slept in our own bed. One man at church said something like "what was it like sleeping in your own bed after having been a gypsy for 10 weeks?" My reply: "unbelievably good!"

Sunday was my first Sunday in the pulpit. We celebrated the Lord's Supper during worship and had a enormously scrumptious pot luck after church. The church also showered us with a lot of food to stock our new pantry.

"YA'LL are invited to come and see!"

I can just hear Ty Pennington say, "move that bus!" oh, wait leave the bus at the lake... "Mosier-Petersen Family welcome to your new home!"

You are getting settled in right?!
Home, but still not "home" yet...
