house update

ok, so, we ended up NOT putting in an offer on the awesome house that i really want.  it was the first time we saw actual numbers as far as financing goes, and we were uncomfortable with what we saw.  so, we don't know what we're gonna do but are completely trusting that God is in control.  i am totally willing to set aside what i want in order to get what God has for us.  it's hard, but that's how i prefer to live life.

we got bumped from the tarr's house this weekend because they have family in for the weekend.  we are staying with the brown's, and they are just as wonderful as the tarr's.  yesterday, i helped the tarr's decorate for their newly wed son and daughter-in-law's east coast reception at the church.  i then got lunch from mr. b's, which is the coffee shop/lunch/play place in calvary.  i sat out on the patio, ate, updated the contacts in my phone, and filed my nails and enjoyed it so much.  it felt great outside and was so peaceful.  that night, we went to the friday night bible study again like we do every week.

today, we went tubing on the delaware river.

we went with some young adults, and it was pretty fun.  we hooked together, so it was nice not having to paddle the whole time.  the weather is incredible today but not incredible for tubing.  it's sunny with some cooler winds (from the hurricane, maybe?), so i was pretty darn chilly.  john was fascinated that on one side of the river was new jersey and pennsylvania on the other.

the brown's cooked dinner for us tonight.  so sweet.  we are exhausted.
