Home Sweet Home!

Well we got the house yesterday, its good we have emptied half of our apartment but are still moving slowly.

The place is nice, there are 2 walls in the living room that have well had wall paper on it, small little roses well I pulled it off today to my suprise of BIG BIG BIG Pink Rose Pannel lovely eh!!! So we will be painting that for sure. Our plan is to paint the living room a nice chocolate brown to make it nice and dark. Its a fair size room with two Big windows. Then we are going to paint the kitchen/dinning room, Red and Black... I will take pictures of before and then after.

So the home owners told us it was a newer hot water tank, well guess what there was sludge in it 200lbs worth! gross eh! So anyways they purshaced a new hot water tank for us!

But we have ran into a problem, five years ago the trailer next door to us caught on fire and burnt to the ground the fire department cut our phone lines and cable line so if you guessed it we do not have phone nor do we have cable for a week or so. We may not get a phone if they are going to charge us to install the lines. 5 years and they never repaired them I was so mad and upset about this. So now we wait and see if there will be a big fee.

Well thats all for now I am exhausted from staying at the place all day doing not much at all

Home time soon!

Wooohhhoooo I am super excited that we are getting our place soon. It means we can get our kids probably faster. We would love to build an addition right away so we could have 4 bedrooms but I think it will have to wait till next year.

Our class starts on September 9th and we have home work to be working on as well as moving. We have 3 chapters to read and a movie and a handout. I am sure we will get it done.

Evan has to work like for the next few weeks its pretty crazy his schedual but they are doing a new project.

Please pray that we can find time to move and get our homework done.

Also please pray for my friends sister and brother in law who should be leaving for africa soon to get their son! Praise God they are able to get this child.

Will add pictures of our new place in our next post

Update

Its Denise here

Anyways I have been talking back and forth this week with our social worker. She is going on holidays but got all our papers. Once she comes back she will be full force in September with us doing our home study and getting us all together to go into the system.

September is great this way we can move into our house and get everything ready to go.

Anyways I left Evan for 2 weeks and have gone on holidays with my parents, that way I am not sitting at home waiting and going crazy about our place. We are currently in Brandon Manitoba and are heading to Thunder Bay for my Grandma's birthday. We will be back on the 23rd and get the house the 26th... Poor Evan has to make the bacon so he is stuck at home with the cats.

Anyways so there will be no more news for a few weeks...

New House

Hello all looks like we are buying a house. We got a call a couple days ago and we loved it. Its an older modular but is in good shape and the best part is its a double lot with tons of space.

It has three bedrooms so there will be lots of space for any new additions to our loving family.

Were going to the bank tomorrow to finalize everything so keep us in your prayers.

Take a look!

Evan

So much!

So On Thursday I got me meet our friends new beautiful little girls, wow its amazing I am so happy for her. They are adorable and so well behaved.

Once we get into the system we will let you all know but we also want you to pray for us daily, I'm not sure if we will tell everyone until we know its for sure, But we may but please do not get attached until its for sure.

So there ya have it!

We just finished our last sheets and will send them out and then hopefully have a home study soon.
