We've moved



Getting ready for the move. Tracy went to a couple local supermarkets and asked them to save apple boxes. We should have thought of this sooner, it would have saved us some mula.


It was nice to have these bigger ones too though.



Our living room packed up and ready to go.


We never did post anything here about our move so let me take the time to do so now. Peter was working in the oil fields but got an offer from his family's business in the agriculture industry. We took several months to consider the offer, and finally decided this is where God was leading us. We looked for a house in the Beaumont area, thinking that would be central to the places Peter would be working, but again God led us in a slightly different direction. We are in Hemet now, and love the home we are renting.


We would like to thank all you who helped us out with the move either physically or in prayer. We really appreciate it and couldn't have done it without you.



Bob Lucas has an expertise in loading trucks. It was really nice to have him.



Rick Chavez taught Tracy that if a box is too heavy for her, the guys won't like to lift it either. Just because there is still room in the box of books, doesn't mean you have to continue to fill it with books. Mixing it up with lighter stuff is fine...ok probably better.



The crew before we departed. (Left to right)

Mike and Erin Augusta, Bob Lucas, Lisa and Kevin Derr, Tracy and Peter, Rick Chavez, Svein Rivelander, and Levi Holladay. We were overwhelmed by all the help we had that day. We were especially grateful for those who were able to make a day of it and come with us from Castaic to Hemet, and help us unload the truck (Bob, Kevin and Lisa, and Levi). God shows His blessings in many ways, and we are truly blessed by our church family at PBC.


Picking a few things up at Tracy's parent's house.

Wow, almost done unloading!


Hey, we haven't even sat on our new couch yet!!!


Mike and Arlis Dowd came down from Banning to help us move in.

Friends of Tracy from Kare Youth League.

Lisa, Kevin, Bob, Tracy, Peter and Levi. They made the nearly 3hr trek from Castaic down to Hemet to help us unload. We could never thank them enough.


We also love the church we've been attending in Beaumont called Fellowship in the Pass. We submitted a request just last week for church membership and are going through the process. Tracy joined choir last week, and Peter is looking into serving in the power point ministry.

My living room sort of looks like that right now, except I still have a lot to do! I had to laugh @ the heavy book box story... I have a big box full of books that I know I shouldn't have packed that way! Glad you guys are settled & love your new place!
