It's Sunday night and it has been a long week. I am glad we're here and everyone made it safely without incident. We already miss family and friends. I am realizing that the assistance they provide in times like this is unmeasurable. We have been blessed with some wonderful connections here in San Antonio. We have been able to stay with some of my mission president's friends while we've been looking for an apartment. We found a great place for a great price on Saturday, but are still waiting on approval to move in. We hope we get the green light on Monday.
We attended our new ward today and were welcomed with open arms. The Cutler's (my old bishop, the current mission president her in SA) are in our ward and so are the Condie's (They are the family we've been staying with). Cutler's had us over for dinner tonight and are just the best! I don't think a more selfless family exists!
Dannielle and Isabella got here on Friday, and it was a hot day. (95+humidity) But the past two days have been great, low 80's and beautiful! We took a drive today after church to the downtown area. We drove around the Riverwalk, and the Alamo. We also drove past sea world, six flags, and a waterpark. There is a lot to do here and we're almost ready to start hosting visitors, so plan your next vacation to San Antonio and we'll provide a place to stay, food to eat, and a car if you need one!
We want to thank those that helped us pack up in SLC, and those that prayed for our safety. We have been relying on the Lord and others very heavily this past week, and are greatful to those that have allowed us to lean on them for support. Thank you all for your visits, and your encouragement as we were leaving.
As we were sitting with the Cutler's tonight we reflected on "Tyler" in high school and "Tyler" now. I have had an absolutely amazing ride. Some of my most cherished memories fall in that window of time and were shared with those of you that read this blog. Thank you for shaping me into the person I am. Thank you for extending friendship to me and my family. We will miss you all very much.
Love,
Tyler, Dannielle, Isabella, and Chesterfield

Hello Stark Family,
Thanks for the comment. That's funny that Russ never mentioned that I was his sister in law. I guess he is embarrassed of me.
Glad to see that you have a little family of your own. Good luck with the move. Hope you get comfortable in your new home town.
Keep in touch...
I am so glad to hear that you made it there safely. We can't wait for you to come up for your sister's wedding. Let's get together when you are here.
Love you guys! Eric & Mare
