A House?

We don't really "own" the house yet, but the papers have been signed! It's official that we will be homeowners again in January. We have decided to build again so that we could have exactly what we wanted after trying to find an existing home that we liked. We are VERY excited to have more ROOM - full basement and 3-car garage (once parked, getting inside won't be such a chore). It has been such a blessing to be able to stay with Matt's parents, but we are definitely looking forward to living in our own house again. I'm sure I'll post pictures as we hit "milestones" in the building process.

AND...Since I have neglected to post any pictures this weekend (because the laptop is still not hooked up), I'll post this link so that you can view some pictures of our house-to-be if you'd like... http://www.ryland.com/find-your-new-home/12-indianapolis/644-eagles-nest/7012-monterrey.html Ours will look a little different because it will have a 3-car garage and it will be Elevation B that includes a front porch. (Disclaimer: It is a model, so it is decorated a lot better than our house will ever be! At least without you're help Melinda!)

Pictures Please!!!

I hope to have pictures to post this weekend. Since we moved out of our house, I haven't had my laptop connected to the Internet.....thus, not able to post pictures! The kids are ever changing and I just can't keep up with everything, but I'll do my best to update you this weekend. Check back :)

Please Pray

Please take a moment to read Henry's story (http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/henrymullett)
and pray for this 3 year old and his family. This little boy is in Aly's preschool class. We know that God is in control and has great plans for Henry, but it is a difficult road for his family and friends at this time. I've been trying to keep things simple for Aly, but I'm praying that God will daily give me the strength to be strong when talking and praying for him with her (as this does slightly hit home for me). Also take a moment and thank God for the time you have (or have had) with your family and friends. Each day is a precious gift from God!
