Moving again

Well, I know 3 blogs in one day, but I really don't think pictures only count. Although I do loving looking at other people's pictures.

Anywhooo. We are moving again. As most of you know we sold our house back in 2007 only to move into a rental that was too small, after 2 months in the winter we found another rental, and guess what it was on the market and sold 2 months after we moved in. Well we weren't getting enought time to look into buying another house and I found a house at the beginning of December to rent and we moved again...We rented this house with option to buy. Well, God had other plans. Kevin lost his job in April of 2008 and we thought all hope was lost. We had no income. The kids I was watching I would no longer have as of the End of June, but God gave us one more week in July thankfully. So now, we have no income but thankfully we had a savings.

God is good. Kevin got a job at the beginning of August, it was only enough to put food on the table nothing else. No rent, utitilties, just a few minor bills, so we continued to use our savings. Long behold we continued to pray to God for the answer and in his time he provided Kevin with a wonderful job. Still not making what he was used to, but enough that we could survive. At this time we decided there was no way we could purchase this house and we contacted our landlord to let him know we would not be able to sign the option to purchase agreement because of a change in our financial situation. He was very gracious that we notified him and gave him plenty of advance notice; however, he did not want to continue to rent to us because he wants to sell the property.

Again, God Provides. We contacted our realtor and explained we needed a house to buy or rent with option that would be affordable for us. We also told him we could not get a loan because Kevin had just got a new job. Long behold he found us a house and the owners had the house paid off and were willing to finance us at a 6% rate. Its a 5 bedroom house not nearly as big as what we are living in, but it was our answer. So we are again moving with the intention of staying put for a long time.

God is Good. He does not always give to us when we ask for it, but he does give in his own time.
