We have now been in Florida almost two months and are beginning to feel like this is home. We have seen God provide in so many ways! Mike loves his job at City Church and the church family has really embraced us. They have showered us with hospitality and generosity and it has made our transition so much easier. Avery is starting to make new friends and is really beginning to enjoy where we are. Believe it or not even being nine months pregnant have enjoyed it here. It is very HOT but we are making the most of it!!! It was 88 degrees in our bedroom on Sunday. I told Mike that we need to advertise to be a sauna.
It seems like every day is a new adventure. We are learning as a family how to make the most of our time and our new schedule. Mike started his first seminary class yesterday. (Let's hope he makes is through Friday without me having the baby : ) He is sitting in the dinning room right now studying. It is going to take some getting use to for me to have him as a student. I just want him to sit and hang out : ) We are excited about where God has brought us and can't wait to see what is in store.
We have had lots of company the last few weeks. Several of our friends were in town this past weekend and we all got to spend time together. It was fun to reconnect and be refreshed. Avery had lots of fun playing with her old pals.
On Saturday we all went to Sea World together. It was such a joy to see Avery squeal with excitement over Shamu. She had a blast. I was hoping that standing in the 100 degree weather would spark labor but it didn't. I actually had an ultrasound on Friday and he is still pretty tiny. Right time Mike saw the picture he told me I don't stand a chance because he looks just like Mike. We are eagerly awaiting his arrival.

This is Avery with her friend Abigail at a park near our house. This is one thing I love about Florida. The parks are awesome!! We have found so many cool things to do around our house. I just wanted to give a quick update and let you know that we are thankful for your prayers. We know that things wouldn't have worked out so well without the prayers of others around us. We have been studying Thessalonians as a Church and Mike and I have both seen and been convicted about how eagerly Paul prayed for other believers. We are very thankful for you all!
