Displaced?

HI! Yes, we are still here. We up and left Illinois October 28th and headed to Virginia. After a two day drive, we enjoyed a fun carnival at the church with Mom and Dad. After about a week, I finally felt like we were getting settled. Yesterday, was the first day I really felt like I had a handle on the schedule. Things get so crazy with five kids anyway, throw off the schedule and..... So displaced has been trying, fun, and crazy. However, we are to be displaced but a short time. WE GOT THE HOUSE! Liz, we mostly stood our ground. No purchase agreement required, just a simple rental contract. Yeah! Joe will come for Thanksgiving and we will return with him. This is his favorite part. The home is 4 bedroom 3 1/2 bath, with office. It is a little over 3000 square feet. I am so excited for all the drawers in the kitchen! Thanks for all your prayers. I hope you enjoy all the pictures.
