At last...

We found a house! After about seven months of what seemed like endless searching, Sharon and I are buying our first house (just in time, too...the baby is due in about three months).

In the past months, there were several offers, and near-buys, but none of them worked out, and now we're both thanking God. In His own time and way, when we least expected it, God provided us with a house we both thoroughly love. It's a brand new 1637 Sq. ft. 3 br/2ba brick house that sits on a half acre lot further away from the city and more in the country.

Going from 10 minutes to work to 30 will be well worth it (even with gas prices the way they are)! We're countin' down the days we have left in this ol' apartment! It'll be nice to finally become homeowners, settle down, and have everything ready for Lilia when she gets here.

I don't have pictures yet, but as soon as I take some (maybe after closing), I'll post them up.

It's a very exciting/sobering time in our lives as we're faced with new responsibilites, etc. But we're thankful for God's grace, as we know He'll provide all our needs, as always.
