Oklahoma Bound

We said goodbye to our house in Anna TX on June 7th and set off for Tulsa OK, our first stop.

 We pulled into the Warrior RV and set about the task of setting up for the first time. The event went smooth despite us never having done it before, trying to figure out whether or not we should hook up the sewer line was a bit confusing, but we managed ( Thank God it did not happen like on the movie RV).

We found that we had not downsized enough and had to store/give away more things to family. My apologies to my brother and sister for taking up most of their garage. After clearing out the excess stuff, we were finally able to organize our new home. Let me say this: Going from 1700+ sqft to a little under 300 is definitely a challenge. However, the freedom that comes with not having a ton of crap is amazing.

This first stop in an RV park was really just a test run for us, to figure out how we were going to do things. For us it is all pretty much trial and error. I would like to say a huge thank you to the Norton family, who posted videos on Youtube of how they live in an RV with 6 kids.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6gow8Vxhcs You guys are amazing! These videos helped give us lots of ideas on how to organize our new home on wheels.

After our test run of a few days, we took off to church camp for a week with the family and then hit the road for Canyon TX, a small town just south of Amarillo where our very good friends, the Asbills, live. This trip was definitely an adventure, which I will fill you in on in the next installment. Until then, don't forget to let go and let God.
