Half Way There

WE ARE HERE! Well, we are in New Bern!  Its been over a month since we blogged last. Our journey got shaken up, its been an awesome ride. The Lord has been super awesome in helping us on our way. The plan was to be our apartment when the middle of May, but inside we wanted out sooner, we found a sub leaser that wanted the apartment May 1st!!! so we had one week to get our stuff out! We had moved out the heavy stuff our, like our washer and dryer, couches, and all, with the help of some wonderful frineds, Josh, and Harrison.  The following week my mom came in town for a week to help with the "small" stuff...and by small, i mean a lot of small stuff. :) We had another friend come and hang out and help...the wonderful Miss. Candice!!! 
         About a month before we moved, we got some new neighbors, they changed our lives. They are such beautiful people!!! The welcomed us into their home, they would bring us food, the laughed with us, they helped us move also. when mom came up she was able to meet them. it was a beautiful time, that we will always hold dear to our hearts! The Lord knew when needed some good neighbors to help us get through the last few weeks and packing and life, and He sent us the family He did, We are so thankful. For me, (Haley) they were the hardest to say goodbye too, they touched my heart in a way, i am not sure it will ever be touched again. We love you Mike, Cleo and Zain!!!!
         New Bern is awesome! Cory is working full time on base here (Cherry Point) and he loves it! I get to see him alot more, i get to go and have lunch with him. We are spending this summer, getting to know each other more, and becoming even closer friends than we already are. :) We are super blessed to be staying with Jen and Eric for the summer, they have welcomed us, and helped with this huge life transition! We are soooo thankful!!
           Cory and I went camping this weekend! I was nice to get away, get away from everyday life, and just be in outdoors and with each other, and with the Lord. It was so neat seeing families just hanging out with each other, and really enjoying it! there was a dad there, with his son for a father/son camping trip, there was families with babies, and toddlers, then there were family with younger kids, and teens, and they just all did there own thing! and everyone was sooo nice! Cory and i were able to talk, hang out, laugh, make fires, and walk on the "beach". We are learning to really treasure the times we have. 
          We are in  New Bern until late July, and then to the Outter Banks for a few weeks, and then we are off to VA.Beach in Aug! Please keep us in your prayer, and let us know how we can pray for you! We love you!
