Journey - Movin' In

Friday - August 22nd

Move in day for Sara. However, Heather and Papa started the day by getting two new tires put on the Volvo! God TRULY cares for us - Heather reminded me before we left Dothan to check the air in the spare while I was showing her where the jack and stuff were ..... the spare was low! ---- the flat in Chicago was inconvenient but showed us how low the tread was on the back tires .... so now safer for the winter! ---- and trying to find this tire was made easy by Heather's roommate Christine who directed us toward a Firestone that she and her brothers have used for over four years .... confidence!!! God is TRULY good.

Moving Sara into the dorm went very easily. We rearranged the room into the "L-configuration" which seemed to work well for Heath and Christine their Freshman year.

Katey arrived from Honeyrock in the afternoon and the girls (and moms!) quickly started pulling the room into shape. Katey is a very sweet, nice young lady from North Canton, Ohio who is the first child of three sibs to go to college. She is also a pre-med major .... so ---> study buddies!

Sara and Katey's suitemates are sweet girls who both play sports - Sarah, from Orlando, is on the Volleyball team and Heather, from Indiana, is on Track and Field ----- yes, you didn't read that wrong ..... their suitemates are Heather and Sarah!!

In the afternoon/evening, we helped Heather and Christine organize their apartment - you wouldn't believe that Pat is actually in charge of "Extreme Apartment Makeovers"!! She did a great job!!

Friday, we'll work more on the girls' "homes" and have the first worship service with the students and parents at Edman chapel ....

P.S. - Sara and Heather spent their first nights in those "homes" Thursday .....
