Much has changed during this little blog break I've been on. For starters- we moved! It was sort of a last minute, 'our rent is going up & blah blah blah, hurry, find a new place.' There were many reasons that we felt a move was wise.
With the help of friends and family- the move was seamless and fast. We
are oh so grateful. Adios apartment living, we are now living in a house! An old house at that. A charming house. A sweet house. A new neighborhood. A new chapter.
We
left with mixed feelings. Actually, mostly sad feelings. The apartment we
had enjoyed over the past year, the neighborhood we had called home over
the past 2 years (almost) was perfect. Even worse... Little Big Burger
just opened on our old street! For those unfamiliar with Portland's LBB,
it's amazing. And, I'd probably eat there 3 times a week if I could.
Andrew was able to walk to and from OHSU, I had a great commute, the
apartment was modern & amazing... the list goes on. It was a great 2
years and we are thankful for our time there and for God's provision in
placing us there.
Even though our last home was much
loved, this home is quickly becoming quite adored. With each and every
day, I'm loving it more and more. More on this later...
But
for now- here's a few iPhone pics from our new home/neighborhood. More on that
to come later.
Over
all, God is good and we are so thankful to have found a new place that
will hopefully be our home for more than 1 year (this is our 3rd home in
less than 2 years). Something to pray about...
