To The Family

Well we tried again, we put another offer on a house. This house met 90% of our dream list, and the pieces that are missing are made up by the dream neighborhood. We arrived early for the open house, and spent some time walking around the quaint little neighborhood. We wondered down to the pond with Chuck, and imagined spending our Sundays doing the same thing. We watched as children rode their bikes, scooters, and pogo sticks (yes pogo sticks) up and down the street. 

As we walked through the quaint home we imagined what it would be like to host our families on Thanksgiving in the open kitchen. We spent time in the master bedroom looking at ways we can expand the master bathroom so that it is accessible, and ideal for our life. We looked at the backyard, and figured out how we would add to the deck for ideal summer fun. We looked at the room next to what would be our room, and decided it would be the perfect nursery when our time comes. As we wrapped up our open house we looked out the front window, and saw the neighborhood kids playing hockey in what would be our cul de sac. 

Has many of our friends and realtor suggested we wrote a letter to the family of this home trying to win their hearts in this journey. Below is the letter that we submitted, and we just heard that we are officially UNDER CONTRACT. 



  

When we received the counter offer from the seller's  this sweet little snippet was included, 
"Well done, a nicely written contract and David and Crystal LOVED the letter! It made Crystal cry, sounds like exactly who she was praying for!"

So if everything goes as planned we will call this beautiful home ours on April 7th! 


We ask that you join with us in prayer as we continue through this journey. Please be praying that if for any reason this house is not meant to be the lord will close the door. Pray for David and Crystal as they began to say goodbye to their first home, and search for a new one. Pray for Kaleb and I as we began to do this thing called adulting. 

Xoxo,

March 30th

The last two months of our lives have been a complete whirlwind of emotion, stress, and utter joy!  On March 19th we were able to endure our first IUI, where I laid very similar to Phoebe in Friend's and prayed with my husband that this would be our first and last IUI. We went in with hopeful heart's and praying minds, and knew the lord had a plan. The following weekend we went on vacation to San Diego where I unfortunately began  to believe that our IUI had not worked, and that we were not pregnant. I experienced cramps, was grumpy to my poor family, and walked around feeling like Shamu on the beach. So obviously I wasn't pregnant, right... Fast forward to March 30th, two days before I was technically supposed to test. It was a Wednesday night, a Wednesday night where I  obsessively thought about nothing else but that I wasn't pregnant. I did what any mildly obsessed woman going though infertily treatments would do, and tested. I jumped in the bath and pretended th...

To Everything There Is A Season

Ecclesiastes 3:1-15 New International Version (NIV) A Time for Everything 3  There is a time   for everything,      and a season for every activity under the heavens: 2       a time to be born and a time to die,      a time to plant and a time to uproot, 3       a time to kill   and a time to heal,      a time to tear down and a time to build, 4       a time to weep and a time to laugh,      a time to mourn and a time to dance, 5       a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,      a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, 6       a time to search and a time to give up,      a time to keep and a time to throw away, 7       a time to tear and a time to mend,      a time to be silent  an...

Food for Thought

  Nancy Guthrie says it well: “If your faith is real, you will not fall away. Not because you are strong or because your faith is strong but because God has his firm grip on you and he will not let go. You will remain in him because you are his forever.” I often think back to my days in college, and oh my goodness do I sometimes wonder how I survived. I was well a wild one. I lived fully and completely in the world and of the world. I tried very hard to avoid my church home, and all the amazing loving members in it. My days were spent feeling ill from the night before's drinking, and my nights were spent trying to see how much alcohol I could ingest. My heart was anything but guarded, and I sought the attention of every man that would say hi to me. It was a dark and lonely time, and yet here I am.  I survived, and have learned so very much from those days. I look back though and realized that even though I turned my back from The Lord, he never turn...
