With how many delays Mitchell and I had I wasn't sure that Pittsburgh really existed.
We have now been here for 2 weeks. I have been busy unpacking, all but about 5 boxes are unpacked now. I have also painted the master bed room a delicious chocolate brown (or Michelle-Obama-nude if you heard about all the hub-ub about her state dinner dress being called "nude" by her designer)
Our yard is a bit out of hand but I am working on it. I have also planted basil, cilantro and garlic.
Today I ran errands then made boiled eggs, pasta sauce, tuna salad, and hot sauce.
Our first Sunday we tried a church that was almost 200 years old. The community was great as well as the message but there wasn't anyone around our age or stage in life. This Sunday we tried a church that had a "self-help" message, as I like to call it. The community seemed good and they have a great children's ministry but I don't think it is the church for us.
On Monday night Mitchell and I went to a Bible study at the In the Blood Tattoo Parlor in South Side on Carson Street. It was very encouraging and we met two young married couples and few single people too. We are going to go to the church that they are associated with, Hot Metal Bridge. I am excited about the possibilities here.
Please pray that God shows us a church group and friends to have. Also please pray that He shows me my purpose here. I have good days and bad days. Today was a good day but yesterday...hmmm... not so much.
I love you all and miss you.
I will end this post with one of our sweet babies from Uganda that I miss severely!
