We are MOVING!

Hi Friends! Wow, what a crazy week! Some of you know that we had our house on the market for over a year in 2007-2008. We didn't even come close to a good offer. We have been praying about whether or not to try selling again before our new addition comes. We could've made this house work but wanted a four bedroom house. Anyway, a few weeks ago Eric decided to go for it and I supported his decsion, praying all the way. The house went on the market March 5th. On March 10th we had a firm offer, which we accepted. The kicker is that we have to be out of this house April 1st. For yall doing the math, that is 18 days from today. Yesterday we wrote up an offer on a house that we had been scoping out. Its older, four bedroom in south Tulsa. Today we have a contract! WOW! Praise the Lord! He has blessed us with this opportunity and although we are only 1/3 of the way along. I am trusting Him for the rest of the many details! Thank you for your prayers during this process! They are already being answered! Our God is GOOD, mighty, and I feel blessed beyond measure. Kathy brought by some boxes yesterday. They quickly became the kids favorite new playtoys. Here are some shots. In the car last night Zach summed things up best..."God made the sunset, God sold our house, God gave us a new house with a big, fun backyard of squirrels and birds! "

  4. Wow! What an awesome story! Our story sounds alot like yours. We ended up putting our house back on the market, too. Within two weeks, we had a contract on it! We just recently bought a new house...closer to Michael's parents. We close on our old house in a week and a half and move into our new house the first week in April. Sounds like we both will be busy packing and moving. Take care, and I am so happy for you and your family!
