Update

The week we spent out at Ashley's house was filled with fun, late nights laughs, cooking and eating lots of good food, some school and good fellowship. The whole family made us feel very loved and at home there. The kids had a ball, and everyone wished we had stayed longer. We miss our surrogate family. An older couple we worship with offered us their home while they travel for the next two weeks and we will be here through October 4th. We are very grateful that they have been willing to share their homes with us! We praise God for his provision, that we have a roof over our heads and our needs met.

This past Sunday we went to look at more houses. We found one that has 14 acres, 7 cleared with fences for a horse and pony and goats we hope to get. The house was huge, with plenty of rooms for a sewing/craft room, weight room, and more. It is a foreclosure, so the price was very good.
The only down side is that it is 20 miles west of Fredericksburg, making it an hour drive for Leif to work, a little farther than we have been looking for. We have not made a decision about whether or not to make and offer. We are praying about it and considering if this is where the Lord would have us. Prayers would be appreciated concerning this.
