her new home

Two weeks ago

we moved our precious daughter

into her new home...a dorm room.

It was a gift to see her navigating

her new surroundings with grace

and gave us such peace to know

her life will not just be a number there.

The month leading up to this day

had been emotional and painful

for so many reasons making this

transition especially difficult.

Hard as it was to say good-bye,

my joy is overflowing for

this new chapter in her life.

One last hug for dad

Off and running towards her future

"For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord.
"They are plans for good and not for disaster,
 to give you a future and a hope.
In those days when you pray, I will listen.
If you look for me wholeheartedly,
you will find me."

Jeremiah 29:11

May your future be blessed
and filled with hope sweet one.

Loving the view

 We're in our new home and
finally getting to a place where
we may be able to unpack soon.
But before we do,
we're just enjoying the moments.

First thing in the morning,
the girls come into our room
to greet the new day.

The lovebug thinks we've got
a riding mower,
and I hate to dissapoint.

Our "other girls" seem pretty content here too,
especially when I give them free reign.

The little chicken chaser.

We've been enjoying lots of family visits
since we moved in.

Lots of room for the big kids to slip and slide.

I think we're going to get some pretty sunsets.

 

This is one of my favorite views ever.

We haven't had time to travel
anywhere this summer,
but we're really enjoying
our blessings
right where we are.

Hope you're enjoying all of your
blessings this summer, too.

This old house

 

Is our new home!

 

Moving day isn't until July (God willing)
but we are crazy busy just trying to prepare.
We are really excited to start making memories
together in our new place.

Even more though...
I'm just grateful to have a home, freedom, food
on the table and a wonderful family
 to share it all with.

 xoxo
