Today is the day.
Today begins a new adventure for our family.
Today is the official start date for the buliding of our new house. I am sure not much will happen today. I figure the dirt you see above might get moved around a bit, if that. But soon more will happen. And hopefully within four or five months we will be moving in.
It is hard to believe that the time is finally here. We signed a contract a while back and we've made lots of building choices so far. But now it is time for things to start moving. It is for real.
Brian and I never imagined we would be able to build a new house. Our Lord has made this possible and we consider it a gift to be where we are now. We could not start the journey without Him and it cannot continue without Him.
It is exciting and overwhelming, scary and amazing, daunting and fantastic all at once. We are praying to St. Joseph and any other saint who will listen. Please pray for us and all the builders involved. And pray for us that we might always turn to God in prayer during this adventure.
This is a personal scrapbook of sorts and so I am trying to keep the personal info to a minimum. You have been invited to share in the updates and progress if you choose. If you do choose to follow along with us, we hope you enjoy the fun. Please remember us in your prayers. And pray for our house - that it may be richly blessed as it is being built and after. We desire that our home will always be a place where God is found.
