Holy Moley!!

OK, so we FINALLY made it to Utah, we are only a day and a half later then we expected. Our moving truck is not doing so great. It took us from 9:30 this morning until 6:30 pm to go 230 miles. We did stop for about an hour and a half to have lunch with a friend. But the truck had only been doing about 20 miles an hour up hills so we called Penske and they told us to take it to a mechanic in Beaver Utah, we had stopped in Richfield Utah for lunch. We got about 16 miles and the truck wouldn't shift gears and started acting like it was in neutral so we pulled over and waited about two hours for someone to come look at it, by then it had rested and went (But not very fast) the mechanic said it could be a clogged fuel filter and maybe there is something wrong with the transmission but this truck only has 38000 miles on it. Anyway we finally made it to Milford where my parents live only to find out that they have a major sewage leak and we can't use the toilet until Pete fixes it tomorrow so we came to the hotel to get a room for the night and his card was declined, come to find out we are at his limit and still have the rest of the way to Washington to go, however far that is? So nothing about this move from the time we got our orders has gone right, were we supposed to stay in Florida, I would like to think not! I was going to hurt someone if we did! I want to be faithful and hope everything will go OK in the long run but right now I'm starting to waiver! So if any of you reading this would like to pray for us that would be greatly appreciated! We will keep you posted on the rest of the move the best we can and let everyone know when and if we get there!

On the Move!!

OK, so it's been a really long time since I posted but life was a little stressful and I had no idea where our lives were going so I didn't want to post until I knew for sure. Anyway, we were FINALLY able to leave Florida and we are now on our way to McChord AFB in Washington state near Tacoma. We're really excited about our move and hope that we will be able to make the transition as easily as possible since leaving was anything but that. We are in Albuquerque, NM right now and will be heading to Utah tomorrow morning. We're going to spend a few days there and then will be going on to Washington. We hope to be there on the 29th or 30th. We don't have a home yet so we don't have an address but as soon as we get that info we'll let everyone know. Well I'm going to get some rest the past few days have been really long and tomorrow is a 10-13 hour day. I'll try to post again soon!!
