It is official

After a 2 1/2 hour wait at our lovely Roanoke DMV we are official residents of Virginia.  We now have our licenses, license plates, and the VA titles for our cars.  I am not quite ready to take off the WI plates on my car...but it will happen eventually.

I have to say that this transition has been easier than I was expecting. Now I know I may be speaking too early but things have really goon well. I thought that I would just sit around here and be so sad to be away from familiarity, family, and friends. Thanks to phone calls, texting, and emails I am doing okay.  I get that I will most likely go through some tough times in the future but for now I am thankful. 
For those of you who know me know that I do not like to put myself out there or to be in new situations.  Since we have gotten here I have gone to two new bible studies, a 'MOMS' group, a book club, and playdates.  That is NOT me.  Thankfully everyone has been very welcoming here and all of these 'new' experiences have been very comfortable.  It is overwhelming to me to have to start at square one with people. The friends in Waukesha that we left KNEW me and Kyle.  We didn't really have to explain things.  Please pray that God will quicken the process of making friendships.
