still alive!!

hey there!! we are still in VA- just wanted to update.
things are VERY different here than @home. it very flat here! haha! mostly 1-2 buildings. everything is very spread out...but there are like cities w/in the city...i guess like trussville or chelsea you know?? BUT they literally ALL bump right together. my head is spinning. OH! did i mention that there are really only like 8 main roads? all almost NONE of the residential areas are visible from them? so you have to know where you are going or you jsut either drive into a dea end street or in circles!!! thank God for real estate agents!!!
HOUSING-one word- AAAAUUUUGHGHGHGHGHHGHGGHGHHGHG!!!! is that a word? or an emotion? haha! doub;e the prices (easily) than what we are used to. but we think we have found one...
Cant really call this a vacation so we haven't taken any photos. MAC has been a real trooper thought all of this! 5hrs in the car sun, 7.5 mon, 5 hrs looking at houses tues, 5 hrs looking wed!!! he has been amazing!!! i just pray that it holds for the next 3 dys! we get back on the road tomorrow late morning....
we are hoping to be able to make an offer before we leave. this has been a CRAZY, stressfull, and frustrating experience. HOWEVER< it is so much easier KNOWING that we are in God will. WE know. its only our logical (human) brains getting in the way. PLEASE continue to pray for us! love you all- and look forward to seeing many of you on the 12th. but i will try to take a few photos of our 4th- with my sister and post before we leave!!!

I am catching up! So much has been happening over the last 4 weeks and I feel out of the loop. I just read your offer for guests in VA. hee hee! I am shocked there are no mountains. I am not a genius on where mtns. are/are not. {smile}

So... I am assuming T is out of the military now from your 1st post??

We will miss you and MAC tons and tons!!

Blessings!
