family here at last.

Well Jennifer and the Kids are here at last at the new house.

They all found it was bigger then expected. They all thought that it was going to be the same size as KL. But no it is about twice the size. So that was a pleasant surprise.
The girls like the idea of a bathroom just for themselves, although they will have to share with Stephan as well.

We all went to church as a family on Sunday and they all like the friendly nature of the ward. Although, Jennifer didn’t like being given a speaking assignment, on her first weekend. Oh well Heavenly Father knows what he is doing.

The Shipping from Malaysia arrives today so that has gotten the kids excited. It won’t take us long to make this into our new HOME.

Jennifer does still not believe that we are in Melbourne and we have a home. It has taken us two years to get. I know how she feels it took me a week realize that this is the place we are to be..

Quarry Bank Mill's, Styal

Quarry Bank's Mill is a Cotton mill that helps start the Industrial Revolution. So first we went through the house where child works would live. The tour guide was all dressed up and knew her stuff answering any question that was given to her. The house is where 90 children would live. The factory is one that evolved over 200 hundred years from a flour mill to cotton mill Once inside we got to see the process for making cotton. With some of the looms still able to run. Two were running to meet the demand of the National Trust Shops they supplied. These were the small ones produce cotton about 1 yard wide. The Bobbin setter was for the line threading of the fabric.
