Guess what we are doing? ..........AGAIN!!!!!

Lol!! Yup!! The gypsies are on the move!! You'd think we'd be sick of it but hey...that's the joy of renting!! lol!!
Before we get made fun of too much...let me tell the story!!! :) As of right now...we are renting a tiny 1 bedroom apartment. Works for us. It was cheap and at that point in our lives it was a definite answer to prayer...however, we need to get out of there for several reasons. 1) It's tiny. 2) the walls are paper thin. We can actually hear our neighbor sneeze and their actual conversations...word for word (which means they can hear us too!!) 3) I apologize in advance cause this is mean but this is the worse landlord we have ever had (won't go into detail) 4) the walls are paper thin (oh. did I already mention that!!!?? lol) 5) it's getting bad behind our apt building. Someone tried to break into Sam's truck the one night. And we have seen drug deals and people doing drugs outside our bedroom window and 6) the walls are paper thin. Yeah.
So anyway....we have been praying as to what to do. We didn't really want to leave the village cause we are both in the fire company and want to be close. Plus most of my family lives in the village, our church is close by and I work in the village. There was a house we really wanted but it wasn't in the village and it was a little more than we were wanting to pay. It was doable but a little more than we felt comfortable paying but we loved it. So we put in the application and just prayed about it and told God that we wanted what He wanted. We asked Him to show us CLEARLY what His will is. Well last Friday while I was at work a lady in the woman's auxiliary (part of the fire co) came into my store and told me that Sam had mentioned to her that we were looking for a house and if she knew of one to let him know. Unbeknownst (did I spell that right? I was trying to look smart but didn't work!!!) to us her and her husband own a house that they've been renting out to the same people for 8 years. The people just told them on Christmas that they bought a house. This lady and her husband immediately thought of Sam and I and wanted us to be in the house. She said her phone was ringing off the hook of fireman wanting the house but her and her husband wanted us. So we thought that was all God. I mean....seriously...how often does someone walk up to you and ask you if you'd like to rent their house? It's in the village which is what we wanted...the price is amazing, it's 2 bedroom (perfect for us) has a front porch (which we love) a HUGE HUGE backyard for Mogley to run around. It needs work (boy does it need work) but we are really really excited about it because we know without a doubt that this was God. To us it was an extra special hug from Him!! The landlord told us to paint however we want and they will pay for all the supplies. They said to treat it as our own and do whatever we want and just give them receipts and they will reimburse us. So we are just thrilled!! Finally....some privacy!! We are so very excited and wanted to share with you!
Oh yeah...one more thing about the house. This is silly but a big deal to me. I've always loved the mailboxes that are just a slot in the door so your mail goes right in your house....and this house has one! It's just amazing to me how God gave us our desires right down to the little tiniest details!!
Pictures to come!

Hello out there!

I haven't been on here much cause my internet went down but I wanted to pop on and say hi!! Hope everyone is doing well!! We've been keeping busy. Sam was really really sick last week which is very rare for him. It was hard to see him so weak but thankfully he is doing much better now. (and thankfully I did not get it!!)
On Saturday my whole family is getting together at my brother and his wife's (Ben and Claire) house and getting pizza and watching "It's a Wonderful Life" We are really looking forward to that. It's gonna be alot of fun!!
If I don't get on here I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!! Enjoy your time with your loved ones!!
