Ummm, what just happened??

Ok, most of you know already, Steven has been traded to the Boston Red Sox!!!!

I first got the news while I was working the end of my very long 8hr day at the Loft, and was completely thrown for a loop!  I think we are both still trying to figure out what just happened lol... With only a month left in the season, we are faced with packing & shipping our apartment, getting the car ready for a drive to Maine, & then across country! And of course all the changing of address, 2 weeks notice at my job, and a flight to San Jose for me and Emma Kitty!

As of now, this is what I know:

Steven is currently on the roster for the Portland Sea Dogs (Portland Maine), and may pitch as early as Friday.  On Tuesday (Aug 7th), the Sea Dogs will be coming to Akron (where I still am) and will play in a 3 game series, then head to Erie, PA.  Sunday (Aug 12th), after the game, I will get steven in Erie & we will come back to Akron and manage to pack up the car and the remainder of our belongings.  Steven will then leave Monday morning for the long drive to Maine where he will finish off the season.  Emma & I will remain in Akron until the 17th where we will then make our flight to San Jose.  As you can see, the next few weeks will be one crazy adventure!

Thank you all for your text, messages and prayers!!!  We greatly appreciate it and feel like this is a great opportunity for Steven.  There are so many things that can happen from here, so we anxiously wait on the Lord and trust in His plan. :)
