We're here.


Three days later, we're here! It took us longer than anticipated with a ten-month old - guess that was to be expected. We spent Saturday night with Brent's brother and wife in Douglas, GA, and had a sweet time with them and their soon-to-be little one. :) Then we made it to Atlantic City, Florida, where my very first childhood friend and her husband live. Had some delicious shrimp tacos, homemade guacamole, and grilled corn, topped off with a walk on the beach! Ahh...the particles. :) Today, we arrived in Winter Park, Florida, to a beautiful campus at Rollins College. Of course, there were some unexpected obstacles with room arrangements and such, but we are settling in. And I think Elijah is sleeping soundly for the first time in three days. We all need that!
Our one-bedroom apartment is just perfect for five weeks. Way better than expected. Brent's at Walmart (you just can't avoid it!) right now grabbing some food for us for the week and a couple of last minute things we need (like an egg crate, because I'm needy when I sleep). We arrived a day early so we could get settled in, and we're so glad we made that decision. We're completely wiped.

We officially check
in for classes tomorrow, with a welcoming meeting tomorrow evening. We've had the
opportunity to meet some other families who checked in early also, and I believe we will have a super sweet time with them.

So for now, all I can say is how Good God is. We're safe. We're here. We're provided for. And we're in His grip. Thank you for all your prayers!

Love,
Lindsay
