Leap O' Faith

Here it is...the anniversary of my Dad passing away and something is happening that he would have loved. It's official (as of yesterday)...we're selling our house and looking to move to a lake property. It's been a whirlwind of change--all within in a week's time. Now, some folks might say: "You're crazy! This is a horrible time to sell!" or "What about Kdee's great school?". Well, here's our thought process...Kdee's school district is getting HUGE and by the time both kids are in MS or HS, they are going to be a number. And we want more opportunities for them than that. I grew up in a small school system and I did just fine...along with my many other intelligent friends and family :-). As for this housing market...well, "nothing is impossible with the Lord". Whatever His will, we'll be fine. We are blessed either way (staying or moving). So, we have asked God what He wants for our family and we will trust Him, no matter what the ups and downs that come with the process. It's really that easy! I also know that my human-style logic has such a limited scope of imagining the possibilities...however, the Lord can truly come up with some amazing adventures for us that always turn out better than I could have ever dreamed up with my limited imagination. We're excited.

Besides the house hoopla, we have found time to have a "girls" and "guys" weekend with the kiddos. ribB and little B went up to the cabin (much to little B's happiness--he's obsessed with that place!) and Kdee and I stayed home so she could go to her school's Kid's Karnival and the Shrine Circus with her bestest pal, Ally. We also enjoyed visits on Friday at our house with more great pals--Susan, Kirsten & Ann. I also managed a visit in with my Grandma (always nice when it's one-on-one and I'm not distracted by the kids!). It was a full weekend!

I've got some great pictures and will post them later...keep an eye out for them!
