Welcome to our new house. This is the wonderful place that God has blessed us with to live in this last month before we leave for Peru. Since we moved out of our house on the 30th of November, God miraculously and graciously provided this house for us to move into. This house was available about a week before we had to be out of our old house, and it is only available until the end of the year. It is exactly the amount of time that we need the house for, no more and no less. That alone shows me how perfectly God can work things out when we let him. Another neat thing about the house is that it is only about 6 blocks from my parents house, making it a very handy place to stay during Christmas. It has been such a blessing to be in here. It has given us the opportunity to have a little more time to get packed for our trip, and to stick around a bit longer to be with my whole family for Christmas. This is the first time in about 7 years that we have all been together. So it will definitely be a special Christmas! We were even able to decorate and set up our own Christmas tree one last time before we leave. It is an added bonus that this house has a mantle from which to hang our stockings. How fun!
We give God all of the credit and the glory for providing this house for us. It is a HUGE blessing in our lives. So thanks be to him! Merry Christmas to everyone!
