No More House - Hunting

No more house-hunting for us! God has provided an amazing opportunity. As we prayed about it we felt God prompting us to move forward and have had such a deep peace. For those who don't know, we recently moved to Northwest Arkansas and have been looking to buy a home... to no avail. ((See my last blog post for an update on how we got here.))

Recently, a good friend got a job out of state. He has offered to rent his house to us for a price we just can't pass up. It's a three bedroom, two bath, with a two car garage (what we were looking for) in Springdale. It's a very central location, which means Keith would be 15 minutes closer to work. We should be moving sometime after Easter.

We are excited to finally have a place- we're still living out of boxes here! Once we're moved in we will probably make a few trips to Goodwill or have a garage sale. One thing we've learned since selling our house last October is just how LITTLE we need. . . and just how MUCH we actually have. Strangely enough, we're actually excited about downsizing. I've heard it said, "Live simply so that others may simply live." I'm not sure who said that, but there is alot of truth to it on so many levels.

I will try to post more updates as things happen... be looking for an extra special update around mid-March when we announce if baby #2 will be a boy or girl!!
