Lately it's just been my Ford Taurus and I keep the roads hot in search of things we may "miss" when we leave. I have come to the conclusion that I will probably forget something.... and I am okay with that. God has always provided and still will even though we are not in the comforts of America.
Our container is arriving on Saturday they tell us...(YEAH)! ;) It will be a great thing to have all of the packing done and just be able to chill out a little before we leave. I am so thankful for a wonderful church family who is taking care of our children's carry-ons (even down to the extra change of clothing). We are blessed to have such a kind and compassion Pastor. Our container will not arrive until the first week in September though so pray for us. That is okay though because there is much to do in our "new home". Painting, rearranging, new fixtures, things to purchase until it do get there etc. Just another day in the life of a missionary, another grand adventure! LOL
Deputation was a challenge... I'm sure we haven't seen anything yet once we arrive. I'm so thankful for friends that have already paved the way into Croatia and are waitng on us. Also I'm thankful for a wonderful sister & brother inlaw who are opening their home to us in Austria until we recover from jetlag. It will be a blessing to be able to see them again and just wonderful to have them close.
OH, I think I hear the phone ringing and many other things wanting my attention.
Bye for now ya'll

Will This Ever End?
It seems like we have been packing forever for our BIG MOVE to Croatia. I would have to say that I am not a fan! You never realize how much stuff you have until it has to be packed into boxes and inventoried. Well, this is the part of deputation we are at... much to do and only a little time to do it. Please pray that we can have it done and on it's way to our new home by the end of the week. We do have a majority of it finished, it's just those little "What if we need it items" to deal with.
I am so thankful for the Leslie Family who helped us find a home already. They have been working hard on our behalf to get things ready for us to get there. Although packing is a daunting task... I can't wait to unpack on the other side of the ocean and settle into our new home.
The Lord has much for us to do when we arrive. Please keep us in your prayers as we make Croatia our new HOME... only 17 more days.
