And so it will be...

 Proverbs 4:26 - Ponder the path of your feet and let all your ways be established.

Originally when we moved to Philadelphia, I wasn't going to email updates or blog. I wasn't sure about another commitment and I didn't know if it was necessary. But after several conversations, I felt differently. So after much delay, here it is!

We moved on December 20th, just 5 days before Christmas! What were we thinking? But the boxes were unpacked and our stuff found its place. The holidays gave us a relaxing adjustment time.
 
And then reality...Tristan & I both work our previous jobs one day a week. We live in a noisy city. I now cook lunch and supper for four adults. We can walk to the library, Mexican restaurant on 5th Street, or the post office. Mornings are now my solitude time. There are kids over every night of the week. I need to find a new grocery store. And there is a constant flow of people in and out of our apartment.

I think it's safe to say that we have adjusted. And we love it!

One of our favorite verses led us to the name of our blog. We have dubbed this verse "our calling to live intentionally". We want to be intentional with the questions we ask, the relationships we pursue, and the prayers offered for the people we meet. Now a commitment to blog and another reason to take more pictures!

Hopefully this will give you a small peak into our lives!

    I'm so glad to have found your blog, Kelly! I'm grateful to have met you and to be a witness to how God is using you and Tristan. I pray He will continue to bless the both of you in all you do.

    Hi Kelly !!! I found the blog and have enjoyed learning about life in philly! I loved the last paragraph of this post - This year the word I want to cultivate in my life is INTENTIONAL - I want to be more intentional with all areas in my life, including my husband & children my faith and in relationships. It seem I have ideas and thoughts but before I know it and day, week or year is gone and I haven't followed thru. I love the verse and this sentence "We want to be intentional with the questions we ask, the relationships we pursue, and the prayers offered for the people we meet." I think I may adopt them in my quest to live a more intentional life!
