Continue to pray....

Well, the wheels are starting to turn on this deal, but one thing at a time. We had some people come look at our house yesterday, and they seemed to love it. Hopefully we'll hear from them in a couple days in regards to an offer. We have a certain amount we must make on our house to put us in a position to buy the other house. So PLEASE continue to pray. Also pray for Gary and I to have confidence in God's guidance and peace about whatever happens.

Also, when we had to get A LOT done on the house in about half a week, we prayed and God answered us with help from our family and friends, and we managed to get the work done! Thank you all SO MUCH!!!! We love you guys and couldn't have done it without you!

Pray for us

I'm asking for your prayers in regards to housing options that may or may not be available for us. What it boils down to, is we MIGHT be able to buy my parent's property....that is, if all the stars align (really, if God wills it). We need to sell our house first, and in today's market, we're not sure if we can sell it for what we'd need to in order to make ends meet. We've made substantial improvements to the house, including new carpet, hardwood, or other new floor covering throughout most of the house, new windows and storm doors (except in the sunroom), an entertainment room w/ a 92" front projection TV (I'm pretty sure that will stay, depending on the sale price...but I need to verify w/ Gary) and so on. So there is A CHANCE that maybe we can sell it for what we need to. We'll probably have a sign out in the next couple weeks. We still have a few things we want to complete before we're ready for people to come in. But we have some major decisions to be made and I want to just hand it over to God for his guidance (and for those of you who know me, you know it isn't easy for me to relinquish control like that!).

Until Gary gets the Halloween pictures off the camera, these will have to do. Hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween!
