Miralce #2 - Finding Friends

Welcome to Texas! We are here. We made it. The drive took us a few days and my mom flew down with Alice and met us in College Station. It was great to have her help and we are settling in nicely.

The day we were moving our stuff in, someone else was doing the same thing on the other side of our complex. They saw our license plates from Idaho and our baby furniture and they decided to come introduce themselves. They are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints too! How amazing that all the trouble we had with finding an apartment led us to move into this building on the same day they were moving in. We know that God's hand is in our lives and that meeting these new friends is not a coincidence. How amazing. We are so grateful that we know someone here now.

Fife

Just a bit of Texas news (and a reason to post a picture of our cute girl). We have decided to take "Kitty Fife" with us to Texas. She will come down to live with us once we find a house. Alice loves this cat and she is a great mouse/bug catcher! These are all great qualities for a Texas pet. Yay!

Miracle #1 - A Place to Live

Of course this little cutie is a big miracle in our life.  We are so excited for the things she will learn in Texas. Miracle #1 we wanted to tell everyone about was our hunt for a place to live. We had two great options lined up. Plan A we were sure was going to work. Plan B was the perfect back up. Both fell through in one day. Uh-oh! Many many weeks of searching and for odd reasons things would not work out. With the kind help of a Texas Bishop's wife and we know the guiding hand of our Heavenly Father we found our apartment with just a few weeks to spare. We know it will be perfect.

Inspiration

We are about to begin the Terrill adventure to Texas. We are so excited, and I decided that we need a way to share our experiences with those we love. And hence, the birth of a new blog. Tonight I was reading a friends blog. She posted about "little miracles" that happened to her the day her car got broken into. She reminded me that we can see the good in people when bad things happen. There are so many little miracles that have helped us prepare for our Texas adventure. I know there will be more to come. Please enjoy being reminded of the little miracles in your life as you follow our blog.
