OOOH THE SUSPENSE!


My dh and I are VERY excited about the prospect of getting this house. we found
one that we LOVE and upon putting in our bid we learned there was a bid already in place .. but that this bid has been in place for over 3 weeks.. which means the bank isnt to eager to accept this bid.. SO our strategy is to bid the FULL asking price... its a STEAL even at the asking price.. getting it for lower would have just been a bonus.. for us, we love this house..
we had prayed about a house that we could live in for the next 10-15 years.. nice neighborhood and room to grow if God seen fit to do so.
Wethink we have that in this house. SO, we are praying that if its the Lords will that OUR bid will be the one accepted.. if not, we do know that God will have something else for us ... But for now, the excitment and suspense of it all is fresh!
.... till we learned about the other bid, we had full confidence that this was the house for us, it was "OUR house" but now, we are not sure if this is a door that the Lord is closing or just a bump in the road...
All will work out in HIS time.....
In other news.. our local library had a baby lamb come and visit last Saturday. Every spring a baby Lamb comes and every fall a baby pig... its so much fun and the kids really really enjoy it.
Here are some pictures from that day.
This picture CRACKS me up looks like he is saying "what are you looking at?"

Very sweet pictures. Love the house. The Lord is listening to your prayers. I pray he answers the way you hope. If not, you know he has something even better in store for you.

About that five dollar bill....I don't think you looked at it close enough. LOL
