We have all of the boxes inside of our new house (except for a couple my mother-in-law is bringing this weekend). However, very few of them are unpacked. Our cabinet doors and kitchen walls are still being painted (the walls by a professional painter in the congregation). We do have TV service, phone, and internet, even though we don't have any doors on our cabinets. We are having family and a few friends over on Saturday evening, so I really hope that we can get at least enough unpacked so that people can have a place to sit and walk around!
People are coming into town because Pete's ordination is on Sunday! We are both very excited. It's also kind of fun to have people start referring to my husband as "Pastor." However, this is a small town, and the rumor mill about us has already started. When new neighbors who are not members of the church have heard the untrue gossip, you know that it's bad. For the other pastor's wives out there, how do you handle the gossip?

Exercising My Signing Muscles
Yesterday we bought paint and cabinet hardware. Today we are packing the car with the painting supplies, an air mattress, and food that doesn't need any refrigeration, and tomorrow morning we head down to go close on our very first house. I will also open a new bank account and head down to my new school to pick up my curriculum and (hopefully) my keys. Life is changing drastically, and tomorrow seems to be an important event in that change.
