Changes

Changes are taking place in our family and they are exciting changes!!!

Last week, John David and I purchased our first home, a 3 bedroom, 2 bath 1500 square foot home with a basement and an amazing kitchen for filming Life:Frugal and Simple cooking shows! We have spent the last week painting. We have painted every room in the house, the ceilings in the master, and are now working on getting all the trim painted. Today we had our carpets cleaned and they look amazing! We are planning on moving in officially on Saturday!! I will be posting more pictures of the house and the improvements we have made once we get settled in our new home...that we own!!!



The other news, John David left Farm Credit today. He will be starting a job as Media Director at our church on January 1!!! We are so excited because God has given John David the desire of his heart, to use media to His glory!! I am so excited and so is John David about our future with our wonderful church family!!!

So, since John David is without work for 2 weeks, we have a Christmas break again this year :) Isn't that a positive way to look at 2 weeks without an income? We definitely have plenty of work to do and we will enjoy spending some quality time together over the holidays!! And, we know that God will take care of us these next 2 weeks, all our bills will be paid, and the freezer is fully stocked!!
