The Day I Thought Would Never Come

I haven’t been blogging much about the details that have been coming together over the last couple of weeks because honestly, I was afraid I would jinx it! (how’s that for amazing faith?)
But as of 11:00 today we’ll be signing our name 50 times, handing over a check, and when all is said and done [...]

Pardon Me While I Vent (again)

I had another post written and ready to go this morning but it’s going to have to wait. I need to vent again.
As you know we’re having a rather difficult time trying to get our mortgage stuff together. Because I’m self-employed we’ve had to jump through quite a few hoops to prove that I’m a [...]

Look Dad, We Have Plates!

Those of you who follow my blog know that we’ve been living in a hotel since the deal on the house we were going to purchase fell through (read more here and here). Pete jokingly asked me on Sunday what I’m going to blog about once we’re actually living in our own house.
Sunday evening we [...]

Living in a Hotel

“We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps.” – Proverbs 16:9
A lot has changed since Monday. For example…

Good Times in Nashville

I’m writing this post from beautiful Tarpon Springs Florida after arriving around 2:30 AM. I can’t tell you how glad I am to finally be here (if you just started reading check out my previous post describing our trip)
I had so much fun in Nashville Saturday night and Sunday. Sunday morning we went to CrossPoint [...]

BIG TRIP: Nashville Update

We got into Nashville around 9:30 last night. After Lisa and the kids got settled into the hotel I met up with Pat Rowland and we hit downtown Nashville.
This morning we’ll be going to CrossPoint Church and hooking up with Pete Wilson for lunch afterwards. Then we’ll hit the road for the biggest leg of [...]

Moving Day! (part 1)

Today was our moving day! The movers showed up bright and early at 8:00 this morning and immediately began wrapping furniture and carrying out boxes.
We were in pretty good shape with our boxes thanks to some help last night from our friends: Heather, Aaron & Devon (not pictured).

We’re just getting ready to head down to [...]

Our 2,300 Mile Exodus

It’s only 120 miles from Fort Wayne, IN to Carmel where we’re moving. So why are we taking the 2,300 mile route? Good question.
Towards the end of last year we began to feel God calling us to step out of our comfort zone into something new. Little did we know that it would result in [...]

The Final Countdown

The week we’ve been anticipating/dreading at my house is finally here. By this time next week we’ll be moved out of our house and in sunny Tarpon Springs, Florida!
Let me fill in some details. This past Friday we closed on our house that we’re living in now in Fort Wayne, Indiana. We’re finishing up the [...]
