Here at last

It has been a long time since our last post. Things have been insane. We are in Israel at last. Internet access is sketchy, but things are shaping up. I plan to do some serious blogging over the next few days, as there is much to say. For now I just want to give my thank yous.

First of all, we need to give thanks to God. Our experience has not been as smooth as I may have hoped, but things are moving along and everything is going to be good. Also, I need to thank family. My parents and Ayelet's parents helped us so much with packing and getting to the airport. We would not have made it from stpo to stop at check-in without them either. So thank you to Imma, Abba, Mommy, and Daddy. Also thanks to my sister for many dinners, advice, and general support. Thanks to Tammar, Ami, and Dov and families for meeting us at the airport. Thanks to Ayelet's sister Shoshana for inviting us for our first Shabbat.

Thank you also to Nefesh B'Nefesh for making this porcess so much easier. Also to every pakid (clerk) who dealt with us patiently as we asked our scatter-brained, broken-Hebrew questions.

We are getting our bearings and things should go much more smoothly now. Netanel is in gan. I am meeting with people to secure employment. With God's help this will go smoothly and we'll be back on our feet soon.

That's all for now, but I hope to right more soon.
