A Memorable 8th Anniversary!!

Today marks 8 years since I married my High School Sweetheart and hopefully we have many more years together ahead of us!!
We didn't have big plans for today since Zane is still finishing up his teacher work days and Bryson still has therapy, but our afternoon/evening ended up becoming very busy because.....
525 Groveton Trl, Wake Forest, NC 27587

 
We signed the final contract on a new house!!!
So, if all goes according to plan and the inspections go well, we should be closing around July 15th.  This idea that started as just an option we were going to look into ended up getting us approved for a loan, finding a house, and making an offer within 3 days time!  It all happened so fast and we have so many examples of how the Lord orchestrated it all together that I will share soon, but for now, just trust us that so far the Lord has opened every single door to lead us to this decision!  And we are so excited!!
So, after staying at the office until it was almost the kids' bedtime, we finally left and fed ourselves and our kids some yummy dinner at Chili's!
It ended up being a pretty good anniversary if you ask me!!  :)  I enjoy this gift a whole lot more than the traditional "bronze" gift!

CONGRATULATION!!! TO A VERY SPECIAL COUPLE.
I love the outside of your new house and I am so proud for you. I can't wait for you to get moved in and post a blog of the inside.
I know you will enjoy your anniversary gift for years to come. Give the children a hug from their great-nanna in TX.
I love you!
