I turned 25 last Friday (the 13th). It was a good day, we drove up to Northern Virginia for the weekend. My brother's Scott and Paul, who both live out of state, flew home for my mom's farewell party on Saturday. Her house is now on the market! Thursday night Steve took me to Skinny Dip (a great frozen yogurt place) and gave me a sweet card filled with 25 reasons he loves me :) I also got a sweet new Coach purse! I'm totally spoiled.
Monday morning the packers came. They were in the house at 9am and done by 1pm. I'm still laughing that the estimate was two days to pack and they were done in 4 hours. Tuesday, they came and took all the boxes and furniture away. It was fun watching them navigate the truck in our neighborhood.
Our things filled the back to the side door.
Today we found out amazing news. We got a house on base! We were originally told that we wouldn't be considered on the waiting list until Steve checked in on the 1st of June. But when we called to talk with the gal we had been working with, she said to fax over his detach orders so they could give us a house! God is so good. I must confess I was really worried/stressing over our housing situations up until about 2 months ago. God reminded me that he was in control and He gave me peace about the situations. Now to have a house assigned to us two weeks before we thought we would even be put on the waiting list is amazing!
Our house will look something like this! We pick up our keys on June 20th!
Ooo Delightful! Looking forward to your new home. So wonderful that it worked out this way!
