I am so excited about our new place. God has really blessed us with this home. We are now in Glenwood Springs (same town as the church) and are enjoying the benefits of being "in town." Silt was a great place for us for the year we were there, but I am glad to be where we are now. We had lots of help from people at church with the move particularly all the moms and kids the girls and I spend time with each week. What a great church family! It took a week of bringing one load over at at time and putting it away and then one day of furniture moving and we were in and already unpacked. I much prefer across town moves to across the country ones, that is for sure.
We are still renting ... but there are some benefits to that. Now we have plenty of room and a great view from every window in the house. The picture with the mountain in the background was taken from our front porch so the house you see is across the street from us. The picture that is all house is where we live. We have a full basement and lots of room for the girls to play. There is also a deck and a full back yard. We've got more than enough room for company to come and visit (hint, hint) and are really just glad to be in closer to the church building.
In addition to the new place, while Justin's parents were here over spring break they bought us a dining room set - something I have wanted for quite some time now. Thanks again Papa and Grandma!! (Kind of an upgrade from the $25 garage sale find from our first year of marriage!) So not only do we have room for you to come and visit us, we also have room to feed you at our table!
I know we have been blessed in order to bless others. My prayer is that we use this new home to God's glory and for his ministry!
This is Mount Sopris which can be seen from our back yard:
