Our New Place

View from the street - Just in case you didn't know, we haven't moved yet. Scottie still has three more weeks of classes and then we will move to Illinois!

Front Entrance - We forgot to take pictures of the backyard, but it's pretty nice. It has a little deck off of the kitchen and a small patio below. There is also a shed in the back that the landlords use to store their lawnmower. You should have seen Scottie's eyes light up when she said that her husband does all of the yard work. So he is looking forward to two years without mowing!!!

Garage

Living Room (This is a weird picture. The insert is the view from inside the room, the rest is just to give you an idea of the size - and the walls are all the same color, it just looks strange because they are merged pictures)

KitchenBasement- This picture doesn't make the basement look like much, but it's pretty nice. The landlord said that the last tenants used it as a toy room for their child. I think we will buy a couple of rugs and put Gracie's activity table and toys down here. Actually we don't have much of a choice. Since her and the baby will be sharing a room there won't be any room for her toys. Plus if she makes a mess nobody has to see it. That's the real bonus for me! :) I almost forgot the biggest blessing of this place... it's only $50 more than what we pay now! We couldn't believe we found something nice for this price. Everything else we saw was a lot more expensive and to be honest a bunch of trash holes. I was in the process of crying when we pulled up to this place. I thought for sure we had gotten the address wrong, because this couldn't be the right place. (Oh yea of little faith.) God really provided for us with this place and we are so thankful!
