Moving Day!


Well... we did it! It could not have gone better thanks to the body of Christ both in Bakersfield and Little Rock coming around us and supporting us in one of the most challenging times for our family. We have been humbled by the outpouring of love for us and are reminded of our responsibility to look for opportunities to serve others as well. (Thank you all for the very practical lesson!)

We are slowly getting unpacked and settled here in Little Rock. We enjoyed seeing Kelly's parents (aka Papa and Mumsy) this weekend and pick my Mom up at the airport tomorrow. Church on Father's Day was great and although the depth of relationships will take time to develop, all of us felt we will soon have another church family to serve with. It was interesting that Lance just finished Romans last week and we sat through one of the adult Sunday School classes that is about half way through John. So many opportunities to learn and serve -- we will need a lot of wisdom to know where we should be...

CHRIS AND I MISS YOU GUYS ALREADY!

I've been meaning to call, but Chris and I have been busy with a few things. One of the main things is about a big decision about Chris wanting to go to Masters Seminary. We went and talked to the admissions head guy. And it's going to take a lot of change and sacrafice. There's a lot more to it, like moving, changing a whole lot of things, etc, but I'm sure Chris would love to talk to you guys about it.

So how are things going? Almost done moving in?

Hope to hear from you soon! :D

God bless.

Love,
Stacy

Hello! We are glad that everything went smoothly for your big move. We really miss you all. Just the other day Aubrie said "I want to see teacher" and I told her teacher moved far away and she said "teacher loves me". Evan, Aubrie and I are frequent visitors to your blog. We hope and pray that you are getting settled and that you make friends quickly. I'm sure once everyone meets you, they will fall in love with your family (like we did).

Take care and lots of hugs from the Hacketts = )
