Movin' on up!

FINALLY!!!!!!

WOOHOO!!!!

We are moving the hell out of the ghetto!!!!!!!

So excited.

We got an opportunity to move into the top half of the home of one of the family's in our church. It's only a mile from where we're at now, but there's a million miles of difference in the neighborhood. We're going to have 2 bedrooms, a big bathroom (with 2 sinks!), and the small landing area that's upstairs. PLUS we'll have full access to downstairs where the kitchen, dining room and living room are AND there's a small backyard with a BBQ!!! All of that for a little less than what we're paying now.

I'm so excited to get out of here, but I have to admit, I'm not sure I really believe it yet. We've had several close calls on getting out of here, but obviously none of those panned out. I'm just trying to trust God that this is really what he has for us.

Weird story - within the first few months of us being down here, I was talking to one of my then-coworkers. I was complaining about living in the ghetto and saying how we were hoping to be out soon. His response? "Oh no, dude. You'll be there for at least three years. That's just the minimum for putting in your time in the ghetto." I told him to take it back. He didn't. He said it was just fact. When we move at the end of this month, we will have been in the ghetto for 1 week shy of three years. I guess our time is up!

Praise the Lord!
