BIG News....

Sooo some people will love this and some will hate it.. Here goes... Every since we moved to NH we have been having a hard time of making it.. The first year was fine, then after that it started to get worse, the economy went south, we had serious financial difficulties, etc.. 2010 was a great year for us, but 2011 has been bad.. Sooo Tim has been thinking of getting into something different besides construction..And if you know my hubby, you know he isn't the type to just jump into something.. That being said, he has been researching different things and it seems a good opportunity would be back in Tri-Cities (I am not going to go in to detail, cuz I'm not sure what will come of it). Plus work there in construction is better than here, sooo it looks like we will be changing states again, back to WA..  If you know ME, the year we lived up there I had said I would NEVER want to live in the "barren wasteland" (yup my words!) forever.. Well we went there last October and I realized it was better than I had remembered, and I think it really had to do with knowing that we weren't living there for good that I didn't feel like I had to like it... Anyway this past winter was horrible... Tim worked, but not much so of course we didn't have a whole lot of money...So we couldn't afford fuel oil for heating.. We burnt wood and pellets, but those ran out when the weather just would not warm up... So we lived in a chilly house for quite awhile, but I think it was God's way of opening my eyes to the idea of moving away.. It did,  we will be embarking on a new adventure and I am good with that! I have my husband and kiddos and that is all I need. Of course I will miss my family, friends, dog (we can't bring him and that saddens me), Kirsten's cat, and things that make New England, New England.. But God is still on His throne and I really feel that we are meant to leave NH. Of course I have times of nervousness, especially in the middle of the night, but mostly I am ready to embrace this new chapter in our lives.. So there you have it, the  news I have been hiding for awhile!

  3. Well that is exciting! Hopefully you find a rental decent priced cause those are few and far between around there! I totally understand what Tiffany is talking about! We are kind of in the same boat as them. What will Tim be doing?

  4. How exciting!! It is true that all we need is our hubby and kiddos. I have never lived away from my family but I now know that I would if I needed to. It is a good thing to have peace and be ready to go where ever God leads..Gary Geer says" never pound your tent stakes in to deep,because you will probably need to pull them up again anyways" God will be with you as you go on this new adventure,as He was when you left BG those years ago...I will be remembering you in my prayers,that God will continue ot give you HIS peace!! Much love!!
