This is our modern day baby book! It is our prayer that years from now, Zeke and Adalynn will look back at the details of this blog and understand just how much we looked forward to meeting them and love them!

Our Home

We are currently on our house hunting trip in Americus, Georgia, but I wanted to post the pictures from our Acworth home.  It is such a special place to us because both of our children were born there (well, at Kennestone Hospital, then came home there!).

We feel blessed to be under contract on it, which is bittersweet for me.  Here are some photos to remember our sweet home...

Now we are praying for the home God has chosen for us in Americus.  We have found two homes we love, and are waiting to hear back from the sellers to see if we can agree on a fair price.  We have been praying through Proverbs 3:5-6.  This trip has had many ups and downs, but we are thankful to know WHO is leading us each step of the way!

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
and He will make straight your paths.
(Proverbs 3:5-6)

Transitions

I wanted to write a quick update to let you all know what our status is on the move.

We are incredibly thankful to be staying with my parents right now.  Our house is not on the market yet due to some very unwelcome rats in our garage, but they have been "taken care of," and the house should go on the market next Wednesday.

Gregg has been holding down the fort at our house and coming over to be with us as much as possible.  Zeke has, of course, loved having Wynna 24/7, but I know she is exhausted.  She gets to go to the beach with her friends next week, which will be wonderful for her!

Gregg and I were just talking about what we think God is doing through all of this.  WE wanted to get the house on the market 2 weeks ago, yet our ways are NOT God's ways!




For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD. 
(Isaiah 55:8)

We trust that He has plans to give us a future and a hope. 




For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, 
plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
(Jeremiah 29:11)

Although, we may not ever know why we are dealing with these seemingly constant troubles in getting our house on the market, we have to continue to look at the bigger picture and trust God's plan.

We are blessed to have a place to stay, family to offer help and support, and resources to take care of the problems before we put the house on the market.  Thank you all for your continued prayers as we try to determine where God has us for the next several years of our lives.

Blessings to you all!
