Well, we are back in Texas and finally settling into our house... with a YARD and aDISHWASHER! Kyleigh loves the yard and Angela loves the dishwasher. Thanks to Mom and Dad Harris and Mom and Dad Bassett there is fresh paint in Elizabeth's room and the extra bedroom (which has a queen size bed for visitors!), the backyard is looking good, and most of the boxes are unpacked.
Our journey back to Texas was a lot of fun. We took a different route that took us through Washington DC where we had dinner with Sarah Whiting and experienced the flood. We also passed through Durham, NC, and Justin got to see Cameron Indoor Stadium where Duke plays basketball. He was like a little boy whose dream had come true! It was a good trip to talk and process what we learned in our past year in the Northeast.Now that we are getting settled, it has been refreshing to have a little bit of time for Angela to rest and take things easy after a great year teaching first grade. Justin has hit the ground running and is the Commercial Account Specialist at Tarrant Business Systems where he does all of the billing and customer service type stuff. We are loving being a part of the body at CityView Church where Justin is going to be doing a lot of work with the local and global missions.
The countdown to Elizabeth's arrival date is currently 53 days!!!! We are getting super excited and Angela's belly is definitely growing. Lately with crazy insurance stuff, God has really been teaching us a lot about depending fully on Him and trusting His provisions (Matthew 6). We are thankful for this trial as it has forced us into dependency, and there is no better way to bring a child into the world.
We love you all and are thankful for the prayers and support!

Sweet Angela- I'm so glad we got to hang out the other day! I've been praying for you guys and the situation with the insurance. I know that God is good and He will provide. And how exciting- 53 days until that precious baby girl makes her way into the world! Praise Jesus! I'm looking forward to the baby shower....it's going to be a lot of fun. But I'll talk to you before then to finalize food stuff. :) Love you sweetie!
