A Friday WHOO HOOO HOOO!

We had an amazing answer to prayer today! Patrick called me around lunch time to say that the paperwork for all intents and purposes is complete and we have a meeting with TMO at 3pm. Our orders haven't quite been generated, but we were given the "in lieu" letter. The other amazing part to all of this is that two WONDERFUL airmen actually stayed late to meet with us. For simple explanation, our meeting today was really two in one. They understood our need (our need for speed- had to throw a little Top Gun in) and offered to stay late on a Friday to help us. We signed all the necessary forms and are now in the system to be assigned to a moving company. They will come out over three days and pack us. I can hear some of you now, "Three days?" Well, this is the fun part. The first day they come they will pack up all of the large items that we can't take with us to Okinawa and put them in storage. The second day they come they will pack all of the things that we will need right when we get there (minus funiture). These things include towels, shower curtain, air mattress, plates, etc. The third day they come they will pack up the rest of the items we are taking. We aren't sure of the exact dates, but we have requested the 15th-17th. We should find out for sure on Monday, maybe even Tuesday. We are very excited about this mainly because we are in the system and things are on go!

Thank you for all the prayers. God is good all the time! And all the time God is good!

Still waiting....

I haven't forgotten to write an update, promise! Since the last time I wrote we haven't really found out anything new. We have gone to a couple of meetings, but nothing has come of them. We continue to be excited about Okinawa. It is just taking a little bit more to get there than we originally thought. No worries, no worries! We know that everything happens for a reason even if we don't quite understand it at the time.
As soon as we know something, we will let you know!!
