As our first week in the big city of Islamorada draws to an end tomorrow I am beginning to appreciate the small town life! This is a town where it seems everyone knows everybody, and a new family moving in is a big deal.
Our first night here we went out to eat as we had nothing unpacked and our waitress who doesn't go to FBCI knew who we were just based on our table conversation (so glad we were behaving!) she knew there was a new pastor with kids starting and was actually looking forward to it!
Less than a week in and I had met half of our immediate neighbors including one massive great dane, met our local UPS driver, and our mail carrier (neither at our house either... go figure...)
Krystal went to Toddler Time at the Library today and met several other mom's with kids Connor's age...
Xander has decided Key's life is for him, I still put his leash on him but just let it trail as he hardly stray's from my side while we are out - he has been my office buddy making the long journey across the backyard to the church, sleeping in my office while I work...
Had a great Cuban Sandwich today from Island Grill while at our weekly men's lunch.
As the week has passed we have realized more and more that this is truly the will of God - and feel so at home already even though we are still digging through boxes...
Christmas tree adventures tomorrow!!!!
