More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb."

Update

I haven't filled anyone in for a while on what is going on in our lives. We are to be out of the parsonage by January 31st and because of some VERY good friends we are buying a mobile home from them through contract for deed. We are thankful to know that we will have a roof over our heads. It did need some work before we moved in, and if you know my husband he is very good at cleaning things up. We are currently painting every wall in the house, it is a 1994 and it had the early 90's wallpaper throughout. Not a terrible thing, but it needed updating. We are also putting new carpet in the kids' rooms and new vinyl in the kitchen, dinning room, back entry, and 2nd bathroom. Jason is working on updating all the light fixtures and we already have the plumbing worked out (thanks to Grandpa Denny!) Lots of work for the fact that we had 40 days from the time we received the official notice to be out of our current house, but the Lord is providing wonderful friends to help us out.

I do have before pictures, but will not be posting them until we have the after pictures as well. I have started talking to my daycare moms and so far the ones I have spoken to are moving with me...praise the Lord!

I know that it is a difficult time, but again with all the wonderful friends and family that have been encouraging in so many different ways it helps! Thanks for the calls, emails, Facebook messages, comments on the blog, help, advise, and everything else that you are doing to encourage us! It means the world to us!

Oh, and for those of you interested in our new address either email, call, or message on Facebook and I will get it to you. For security reason we are not going to post it on the blog or facebook for everyone to see.
