We bought a house....

Well, it's been awhile since I've blogged, but we will be closing on our new home in East Medford, OR on May 28th. We sign our loan papers today and then we sign closing papers and snag our keys on May 28th. As often as we searched ourselves, we found nothing......however, when not searching, the Lord placed a very nice 3 bdrm, 2bthrm, 1700 sq. ft. home built in 1998 into our laps. It was quite shocking, but something we felt we weren't supposed to pass up. So after much prayer and support from our church family and friends all over the U.S.......:) we were able to purchase this. God has given us a real peace. Todd's job is going well and Brendan (after a little worrying and a few tears) is looking forward to starting at Kennedy Elem. in the fall for First Grade! So, on goes our journey in Medford. As soon as I get some good ones, I'll post pictures of the new house. The house has been bank owned for over a year and we were fearful of what it might look like when we took our first walk through.....but to our surprise we have brand new carpet, brand new paint, a brand new gas stove and a brand new microwave. Everything is in working order. Our big project will be getting the front and back yards in order. They are pretty rough right now, but we look forward to summer fun fixing up our yards.....this will be a great learning experience for us! ha! We are giving God all the glory for our home and thanking Him for his faithfulness daily!
