Moving to West Virginia

It all started with us wanting to move out of the house we are in, to help cut back on our monthly bills. We also wanted a different layout for the house, we feel like we really needed a basement, a neighborhood with kids, a flat area for the kids to ride their bikes...etc...so with all that said it was a must to look for a new house. We did start looking in our own community...but then began thinking...since Roy works from home we could really move where ever we wanted. So we began praying. We thought, we would really like to be closer to some family, we would really like to have more snow...so we decided to move North. After all there is nothing like family, it would really be nice to be a little closer, but not too close if you know what I mean. :) We loved West Virginia because we would be about an hour from family, we would definitely get more snow, and it is the "mountain state". So it has all the great things we love about Tennessee, the mountains, the rivers, skiing, tubing, white water rafting....etc....all the fun outdoor stuff that we love so much. So we asked God to either open or close the doors, and he opened them, by providing a house for us in West Virginia. It is perfect. Less per month, a basement, nice yard, on a culdisac, in a great neighborhood. It's even a new house so, just move in. It is beautiful. We feel so blessed and at peace that God is moving us in a new direction for a new purpose in His plan for our lives.

But...There are many thing I will miss from Tennessee. So I will list them and pray God will provide ones similar for us in the new state.

Church - Heritage Fellowship - Great Word, Worship, and Friends. Pastor Paul and Lynn

Identity - 4-6th grade kids that we have grown to LOVE


My House - Safe, Quiet, Birds Chirping...etc...


Dyllis Elementary - We always say "There is no place like Dyllis". My kids felt at home and loved.

My Job - Also Dyllis Elementary, I will really miss my co-workers there. They have been my family!


My friends - TOOOO many to name, but I will miss them all.

My mechanic - friends, trustworthy, reliable, reasonable. Kim and Rex Spoon

My Doctor - so through, patient, caring, kind, concerned. Dr. Ann Carter

Pediatrician - The Best one in the World!!!!! Nate will miss making him laugh. Dr. Courts is the bomb.

Lakes, Rivers, Hiking, Mountain Beauty - There is nothing like the "Great Smokey Mountains"

I will even miss little things like, my hairdresser, my dog groomer, our vet, and even the tellers at our local bank....the list could go on....but I think you get the point.


Lord,

Please be with all those listed above as we leave...and please take care of us as we go.
