We Found a House!!!

I'm trying to keep everyone updated on our move status as most of you know, we have to be moved out by May 1st. We drove North yesterday and looked around and had a very interesting day looking at rentals. I really thought with the way the economy is that there would be a TON of rentals - WRONG! I would say that 75% of what ended up being available were homes that someone said they wanted to rent, but it turned out to be "Lease to Own" OR we're in foreclosure - take over our payments. Needless to say, this is not what we wanted to do so our rental selection was decreased significantly. We saw some very interesting rentals yesterday, including those with cockroaches and they still wanted too much money. BUT, we were so excited as there was one that we really loved and it was in our price range and something that we could live in for a year. It is a brand new Victorian style home never been lived in that is 4 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths and 2800 square feet. The only downfall that we had with it was that it was not fenced and this really was a deal breaker for us. We talked to the Landlord, which we love - she is so nice and she is going to put in a fence for us and she LOVES dogs to boot. We feel so fortunate to have found this and the girls are so excited. So, we now have one more important task crossed off of our lists and now we have to coordinate getting all of our stuff from (Boise in storage) and here all up to the new place. I know it will all work out, we're going to take it a day at a time, but WOW, what a lot of work ahead of us. Continue to pray for our family.
