almost home

We're almost there.

4:00pm on Friday

We're closing on our beautiful second street home :)  To say I am excited is an understatement.  I am thankful and craving and utterly joyful!!  I can't wait to show you photos.

We've been in our one room motel home since July 8th....that is 9 weeks...63 days....thankfully I had a few weekends away to break up the 9 weeks....

Husband man has been gone for this last week. He left Sunday afternoon for a class he needed to take for the new job.  He'll return Friday afternoon and I'll meet him outside the lawyers office.

And then we'll go to our new forever home  <3  This crazy emotional overwhelmed and grateful lady couldn't be any happier for Friday to roll around.

I bought a new dress today...I'm so excited :)

....the final step....

We have a closing date!!! WAHOOOOO

September 17th.  12 days....I will again sleep in a home.  We'll be able to move the few things from our "temporary home" into the home that night.  Then a few days later we'll have a mad rush of a weekend filled with driving, packing, thanking, saying goodbye  and driving, unpacking, thanking, beginning to settle again.

It's with many mixed emotions that I count down.  I am 75% very excited about finally being to this point (100% excited about the home!) and 25% sad that it is a definite move.  It's funny how one's brain can be tricked into believing things are temporary and we'll *some how* end up moving back home and I'll be able to teach 5th grade.....craziness isn't it?

I am simply thankful we are at this point there.  There were many days that I fully doubted we would ever get here. and here God brought us....faithfully as always.

Thanks for following....I can't wait to post some before and after paint photos!!
