The House

We head out of Alabama in less than two weeks and this is the home that awaits us. Danny went on a house-hunting trip a couple of weeks ago and he says this would be a great fit for us. We just got word today that the homeowner has approved us to be their renters. We've been praying that the Lord would help us get it, and, as always, He has answered our prayers. We're so relieved and pleased. What I'm most excited about? Having a backyard, a real backyard with a fence and grass. In Tucson we had weeds and dirt and lots of big spiders. I think I only stepped foot out there twice. The kids, probably never. In Alabama we've had no fence. The kids have gone out just a handful of times. I can't wait to have a regular, kid-friendly yard.

Oh it looks like a cute house! You are going to know exactly everything you DO and DON't want in a house after this won't you!? How long will the dallas stint be? You've got to be exhausted from all the moving.

Where in Dallas will you be? We must get together this time you are in Texas. What are your holiday plans? Looks like fun!

Looks like a great house. Glad Danny found something that will work for you guys. If only we were still living there!!

Just don't expect too much from the St. Augustine grass - not the soft Utah stuff I love. And make sure to treat for fire ants. My poor Mason has had his worst offenders in Dallas. But you're getting there just in time for some GREAT weather!

We are going to miss you guys like crazy, but glad you are getting closer to being done with moving. The house looks so cute! A backyard will be wonderful! You will be missed.

Oh to have a house...and a yard! It looks great. Spencercito has finally figured out the benefits of a yard, I'm afraid he'll want to add it to his Chrismas list.
Is this the last move? Where do you think you are going to end up?
We'll be in AZ the week after Christmas-let us know if you are in town too-you could meet Lee#3
