Getting Settled

Well, I hope this post finds everyone doing well! We are finally getting settled in and back on our schedule. Why I would ever want to get off our schedule is beyond me. It seems that we have been going from sun up to way past sun down trying to get everything arranged in our new home. It was our hardest move so far 1.For the fact that we had to move everything of my Grandparents out of the house and into the basement or down to Indiana where they are living now and 2. Because it is even farther from the church. But we are so excited that the house that has been a thorn in our side for the past 6 yrs is finally GONE!!! AMEN!!! I am very excited about some of the changes we have made in our home since we have been in our new house. 1. The constant battle we have had with clothes has so far been resolved by only allowing 5 outfits for each child in their dressers. This has eliminated alot frustration for me and also for the boys who's overflowing dressers were hard for them to handle. 2. The constant problem of toys being all over the house has been resolved by only allowing them to play in the basement or outside. 3. The annoying snow clothes mess has been resolved since we do have a basement and they all have a special spot for their specific items. These may not seem like much but it was a constant battle for us in our old house. We really love this house and since we have spent so much time here with our Grandparents it was easy for everyone to adjust.
We are coming to the end of our quiz season (we quiz once a month this year over 1Cor.) we just have March's quiz and April will be the final's. So far we are 4 wins and 1 loss. We just quizzed Saturday and won 360pnts to 40 pnts. Abigail is the top quizzer out of all the quizzers and Megan is in third. These are quizzers from 7th to 12th grade. Every month the team with the highest points wins a traveling trophy and we have won it 3 times this season. Plus we have received a team bonus 2 times in a row which has not been done in at least two years in this league. We have a great team and all of the kids know their stuff. We are very excited for our team. Well, I guess that is about it. Please pray for our church we are in the final stages of our building project and it is crunch time. Our pews will be here March 3rd and we aren't done with the drywall yet. Our Pastor and men are working night and day so it will be done in time. Maybe next time I will have some pictures for you.
