OUR NEW HOME

It is official! 

 We moved into our new home on June 4th. 
652 Bradford Drive
Apt D




Before the moving truck & helpers arrived we loaded up our cars.


Here's Jim driving the rental truck to the house & backing it into the driveway.



We had plenty of helpers from our small group, from Jim's co-workers & from our neighbors.  We did a great job keeping to Jim's time schedule.  We provided coffee, juice, water, donuts, and muffins at 8:45 am and started loading the truck at 9:00 am.
LET THE FUN BEGIN!!






 Thanks, Karen, for doing a fantastic job cleaning!!!! 
Karen, Lisa & Loretta stayed behind & cleaned the house when the moving crew went to unload at the apartment. 
THANK YOU!  

 After the truck was unloaded pizza & drinks were provided for all the helpers. 
Thank you to everyone that helped with our move. 
We truly appreciate it!
 This is the apartment living room.

 Our new backyard!
 Everything that was left setting out in the backyard was stored in the shed before the big storm hit Saturday night. 
God's timing was perfect!
Thor's new home!!





 Our new garden!

 My new workspace where I can do anything from paying bills to updating this blog.

I am sad to leave the house on Arundel Drive.  There are so many great memories!  But I am excited to see what God has in store for us in the future.  As quickly as things moved & all the things that fell right into place, I know that God has been orchestrating the complete process.

SIXTEEN DAYS!!

Who would have thought it would only be 16 days from listing our house to closing on the sale of our house??? 

I guess God really wants us out of this house.  Things have been happening so fast that our heads are spinning & I think we are still in shock. 

We expected things to take longer than 16 days!  We will be moving to an apartment on June 4th until we can decide what our long term plan is. 
 
Here is our new address:
652-D Bradford Drive
Kokomo, IN  46902
 
Here are a few pictures of what we will be leaving:

SALE TIME!

 We participated in the neighborhood garage sale that is held every year on the first Saturday in May.  We netted a tidy profit despite some sprinkles throughout the day.  Check out the pictures!

SETTING UP





I took pictures while Jim & Gregg did the work.

We took the easy way out on pricing & only marked a few items.  Everything else was $1.00




Break time!

BACK HOME AGAIN IN INDIANA

I returned home on Saturday, April 16th just in time to enjoy the April showers.  All the rain has ceratianly been great for the grass, flowers & trees. 





 I do enjoy the beauty of the new beginnings of Spring, but I miss the warmth of Florida.

Here is one of the Florida squirrels enjoying dinner on the porch at mom & dad's house.
Bon appetit !!
