We have lived in, and LOVED our house for a little over 8 years!! We bought our house brand new and have had many fun adventures here!! When we first bought our house, we were a different couple than we are now! We thought we would move to something bigger and better after a few short years! We thought that we "deserved" better! Ah, how God has changed our hearts and minds!!! We are SO thankful!! :) We have a beautiful 4 bedroom, 2 bath house, plenty of room for our little family of 4! We know that at some point God will move us, but we don't feel HIS call yet, so we will live here until He moves us!! (I am so thankful that it isn't in our timing, but His! Whew, that takes a load off our minds!:)) We do love to have people over, and we occasionally have out of town guests, so last December we started thinking about how we could improve the space that we currently have!!
We had ALL sorts of ideas, and this past weekend, we made them happen!! As I mentioned preciously we have 4 bedrooms... we have a master and then 3 additional bedrooms! Our daughter has her own room, and our son has his own room and then we have a play room!! We talked back and forth about making the play room into a spare bedroom, but then decided against that, the kiddos and their friends LOVE having their own room to play in, AND it keeps toys outta our way! :) And, since we don't have out of guests but a few times a year, we felt like that wasn't the solution! So, in February we bought bunk beds for our son! YES! Checked the first part of our plan off the list! Bunk beds gave us an additional place for a kiddo to sleep! For our 10 year anniversary, my sweet husband and I celebrated by buying a whole new bedroom set of furniture for our bedroom!! We had hand-me-downs (which were a blessing for 10 years:)) but we were excited to pick out our very OWN set...and, in a KING size!! We knew that our furniture was going to be delivered on Friday the 18th, so last week we got to work painting our room and getting it ready for our new furniture! Not only that, we were getting our sweet little girls room to "inherit" all of our furniture!! WHEW, it was a busy week, but we have all of the rooms settled and they look fabulous!! SO, when we have company, our daughter will sleep in brothers room in the bunk bed (and any other kiddos who come will get to sleep in there also), our guests will get to sleep in the queen sized bed and have their "own" room and we get to sleep in our NEW, KING sized bed!! It is ahhhmazing!! I am so thankful for God's provision in making all of this happen!! He always provides and we are so thankful!! :) Now we are ready and EXCITED for guests to come and hang with us!! :)
