New Adventure

I haven't posted for a long time. Things have been amazingly crazy and it seemed to hard to keep my thoughts straight and so much has been unknown until recently. As most of you know we put our house up for sale and to make a long story short....we decided to use a realtor and sold our house in 10 days. Exciting yes but now what? We had decided to make Colorado Springs our next city to check out as a possibility thinking our house would be sitting on the market for a long time. So, we had to make a decision....stay and rent in Az or decide if we wanted to just take the plunge and go somewhere else. We decided to take the plunge and make Colorado Springs it. Neither of us had been there, our house was closing in 3 weeks and we still had not recieved our appraisel to know if any of it was even possible. With lots of prayer we went Colorado Springs for the first time the weekend before our house was suppossed to close. We had two and half hours with a realtor to look at the rentals available in the area we wanted to live in. Found one option, put all of our eggs in that basket hoping no one else wanted it or we were homeless. Loved the city and then moved the next weekend. The move is a story itself...26 foot trucks are not as big as they seem. We moved in Sat. Greg left Monday afternoon. My mom left this morning and it has been so crazy, but filled with blessings. Here is a photo of the house. I love going to the store around the corner and seeing mountain views. I am excited and anxious about the new life I am starting here. This is the first time I have not been surrounded by family or church. I think I will be fine.... until the first time I have to drive in snow!

I would agree it was a "new adventure" Thanks for having Dad & me be a part of that.
