God is so so good!!!!

Excitement at our house this weekend......we accepted the offer made on our home 1.5 weeks after we put the For Sale By Owner sign in our yard!!!!! AND......the home that we would like to buy......THEY ACCEPTED OUR OFFER!!!!!

God is absolutley taking our breath away....our banker came into the bank today for us and the couple that will be buying our house......AND IT'S MEMORIAL DAY!!!! Yes....he gave us his cell number and said call me when you get here.....I'll come unlock the door and let you in. This is a big, big bank in Bloomington. Now what kind of banker does that? Um well.....an amazing banker. And God......is totally orchestrating it all. We can take no credit other than this:

One morning I woke up and heard God say: "put your house up for sale." and shortly after that we did. Now we had talked about always finding a bigger house in the future but we hadn't really talked about anytime soon. That is how big our God is.....and that is how much He loves us. Never did we even imagine of things moving this fast.

The paperwork has started....nothing is final obviously until the closing but we are just amazed (As my sweet friend Holly reminded me: Just let God amaze you Laura!) and He truly has...we are so humbled, in awe, trying hard not to get too excited....you name it....we have felt it ;) I am a little sad to leave our home where we brought our baby girls home from the hospital to. There is so much about this place I'm going to miss......but we are so blessed that a young sweet newlywed couple will be getting this place next ;)


So now I suppose I should get started on the packing ;) and purging........Thank you to all our dear family and friends who have prayed for us, supported us, stood by us, and helped us get to this point. We love you all so much and can't wait to have that first cookout at our new home!!!
