Our first post..coming to you live from the Keystone State!

We are finally settling in here in Lewisburg, PA. After days and days of cleaning, our rental home is starting to look (and smell) decent. We rented a refrigerator and air conditioning unit and can finally rest comfortably in our humble (and I do mean humble) abode.

We put an offer on a house yesterday and will know by this evening whether it is ours or not. If the sellers accept, we'll close on or before July 30th which gives us plenty of time to get settled before the semester begins. The house is really cute but the exterior definitely needs to be painted (can we say school bus yellow). It is a little over 1900 sq. ft, 2.5 baths, has a living room, dining room, family room that opens into the kitchen, and has 4 bedrooms. It also has a lot of land (.86 acres) so that Charlie and Kai can run wild!

In other housing news, we are set to close on our home in Tallahassee on June 25th! Selling that house has been such an answer to prayer...our buyers are nice people, the inspections have gone so smoothly, and we have a fantastic realtor who has managed to take care of every little thing now that we are more than 1000 miles away. It's funny to think how I prayed all those months for the house to sell and just when least expected it, we received a full price offer 3 days before our departure. God is good all the time, and all the time God is good!
