Painting

We've been in our new house now for a little over a month.  We're getting ready to paint some of the rooms and we can't wait to see what it's like once we get everything done that we want to do.  We know that it's going to take time and it's probably never going to be completely done, but please keep us in your prayers as we have a lot that we want to get done and never enough time to do it all.

Can't wait to move!

We've got our house picked out, a price agreed upon and now we just have to get everything done for our house to sell.  My dad, Fred and I got a lot of the work done on the outside of the house just this last weekend.  We replaced a lot of fascia, got some new window frames put in, painted where there needed to be some new paint and got the concrete fixed on the patio.  Now we just have to make sure the sheds get all taken care of and we should be good to go.

Megan and I can't wait to get everything taken care of and get on our way to moving and remodeling our new place!  It's so exciting to have something new to work on, especially when we plan on living there for so many years.  Please be praying for us and we will keep you updated on how things are going for us.  Thank you all so much for all of your prayers so far, and I hope that everything is going well for you as well.

Selling the House!

Well, we got a call a week ago and found out that somebody called and wanted to see our house.  It's been on the market all winter, and we were hoping that when it got warm out people would start coming to at least look it over.  The couple came on Wednesday, then came back Friday with there offer!

We now have a closing date of May 13th!!!  It happened so fast.  So, Megan and I are quickly looking for a house of our own over here in Illinois.  We're headed back and happy to be making the move closer to CrossRoads and closer to the Polyclinic.

We've been looking around town, online, on a list from our realtor and on a list from Sue and Fred, and hopefully, one of these houses will be the one.  We're actually going to look at our first house tonight when Megan gets off work.  It's exciting but really pretty nerve racking too.  There's a lot of different things that play into whether or not you want a house, and Megan and I have a lot to try to agree on with so many options.

Please keep us in your prayers and we hope to be updating everyone soon on our house hunt!

New Job

I don't know how many people are aware of this right now or not, but for the last month or so, Megan has been looking for a new job in the Danville area.  She applied to lots of different clinic jobs and at first it was pretty frustrating.  She wouldn't hear anything, or she would found that a few places were going to go with someone else to fill the position available.

Nevertheless, Megan continued hunting and placing resumes in the hands of potential jobs that she thought she might like.  Well, last week, the Polyclinic called.  They didn't have a job available when Megan gave them her resume, but they called on Monday and she went in for an interview a few hours later.  Now it's Tuesday of the following week, and Megan did her physical, drug screen, and some paper work yesterday.  And today, she had to be there bright and early to get things rolling.

We both feel like this has been a time that really made us turn to God and completely rely on Him.  Although we don't want to have to do anything like this again anytime soon, we are grateful for the storm and grateful for the way things are turning out.

Megan really enjoyed the people she was working with in Cayuga at the clinic there, but this has been a blessing in the end.
