One Year

So we've been here now for one year.  365 days. Wow. To be totally honest, I'm glad we've all survived.  It doesn't feel quite like thriving yet, but I suppose we're on our way.

 

The verse I picked out to pray for our family this year has been a much needed one:

"May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ." Romans 15:5-6

 Right now we are perfecting the art of WAITING.   And asking daily for endurance and encouragement in that endeavor.

 

We continue to wait on our house project.  Here's some updated photos of what things look like these days:

So we're excited to have some new pipes, electrical wires, grass, ductwork and a giant hole under the front beam where they are building a new support wall. 

 

And, of course, these cuties are always along for the ride, helping in anyway possible....and usually getting themselves covered with dirt and/or mud in the process:)
