Good thing I didn't get rid of the boxes!

So, here is a testament to God's provision. Tim and I have been talking and praying about our housing situation. We know that we need to wait to buy/build a home for at least another year, but space is in short supply here where we are in our current townhome. So, as we were driving down the road after church on Sunday, we pass a house with a "for rent" sign in the front yard. A cute little white home on a nice street with lots of shade trees. So, we call the number. The landlord tells us about the house and it sounds like a great deal. We ask to see the house and schedule a time for Monday mid day. The landlord put the sign in the yard just days before we called. We look at the house, and it is just perfect for us. 3 bedrooms two bathrooms, bigger kitchen and dining room, bigger living room, and the biggest plus, a nice big yard for the kids to play in. It has hardwood floors throughout the house, too. We tell the landlord we would like to think and pray about it and would be back to him within the next day. We had to make a quick decision because he is going out of town and really wanted a tenant in by the middle of the month. Yes, we will be moved by July 15th. My mom is coming on the 9th to visit us for a bit, Brenna's birthday party it the 18th as well. Needless to say, I am using the boxes that I unpacked just about 2 months ago and we have started taking loads over to the new house. I am really getting a lot of experience packing and unpacking. Maybe I should start a business??? Anyway, we are thankful to God for His provision of a bigger place that fits our needs and even costs just a bit less!
