I just got settled back into Atlanta for the next 2 days before I say goodbye to it and everyone I love here for good! Yesterday was a looooong day! We were so blessed to get movers paid for by Georgia Southern.... I don't know what I would do if we had to physically move ourselves! We boxed up for a week straight and I was still boxing for about 2 hours on the day of the move! If you ever need a great mover and are moving from Atlanta or from place to place in the city check out Best of the Best movers!
Anyway... we finally paid and tipped them at 1:30 am and I couldn't get to sleep! Today we slept in and were starving since we barely ate anything the whole day before! we got up and realized that no one had breakfast anymore... so we hit RJ's a local steak and seafood place in the 'boro and had the Sunday lunch buffet.... and what I would call the best black eyed peas I have EVER had! I stuffed myself on home cooked veggies before I even tried the AMAZING dressing and turkey, fried chicken, and roast beef! SOOOO GOOD! My favorite part, the waitress put a full pitcher of Diet Coke on the table for us to get our own refills! It was the best!
We then hit walmart and lowes picking up some things and food for the new house and most importantly.... fire wood for our amazing fireplace! we then worked to unpack boxes and had a surprise visit from a neighbor down the street. He filled us in on some of the neighborhood 411 including who our neighbors are, what they do for a living, pets that will stop by for a treat, and open invites to join them for oysters in the winter and seafood dinners in the summer!
God has been so giving to us in the moving process. He has provided us with open doors, signs, and confirmations that Statesboro is the place He wants us! I am so thankful for the peace He has given me through this process! I can't wait to get back there for good and start to get settled! I will get internet on Thursday and will begin to update you on our adventures in the Boro!

Hey Guys - I got the opportunity to congratulate Brett after the ACC Championship game, but I wanted to say how much I enjoyed and appreciated the Christmas letter that you sent out. I know that it was a long, often difficult path, but I know it was also an enjoyable and fruitful journey to get to this point. As I was reading the letter I couldn't help but remember all my time and discussions with Brett about these things along the way. Georgia Southern has hired two of the best people I know in Coach Monken and Coach Gilliland and they certainly have a new fan on board with them.
All the best,
Clay
