One of the traditions around here is the "fellowship family".
When a new person(s) arrive here, they don't know how to find their way around. So a family gets assigned to them to help them adjust.
We were were spoiled, we had an excellent fellowship family who not only showed us around and got us setup, prepared our house before we came here but also showed us around some of the towns and stores.
Today was our turn to pay it forward. A new couple arrived that we knew briefly a few years ago. We have spent the last week preparing their home, cleaning it, putting flowers and welcome sign in place, turning the gas on, the electric, etc.
Today we picked them up from aviation, and gave them the tour, and got them set up. They are so excited to be here, the last 2 years of their lives have been moving around and not having a place of their own.
We were glad to talk to them, share some ice cold lemonaide, move their luggage, and help them get settled.
It is jsut being neighborly, there are so many opportunities to be neighborly here, we love it.
