Just call us crazy...

On Tuesday last week, I got to have breakfast with this guy...Chick Fil A to be more exact...he certainly knows a way to my heart.
 
We are about to embark on a new chapter in our lives.  A couple of weeks ago Chris mentioned that he had found 15 acres for sale about 5 mins from where we live now, and thought it would be good to look at/buy.  Fast forward 2 weeks, and we have a contract on that said land, have a builder, a house plan, a banker, etc.  He has done such an amazing job getting everything set up.  This is a completely wooded 15 acres, so we will have to run water, electric, septic, make a road, and clear the land.  He has met people there multiple times, and like I said taken care of everything.  I literaly have helped pick out the plans, met with the foreman, and he has done the rest. 
 
I am so excited to be doing this with this man...he is so good at this, and I am excited to have some land and a place that we can build how we want and make some more memories with our family.  I am however, not excited about moving 4 kids and ourselves, that sounds like NO FUN!  But I know that it will be so good in the long run. 
 
I am grateful that God has allowed us to be able to do this.  Although, we don't need the extra space really (my dad's parents had a tiny house with 10 people in it), it will be nice to have and we will be thankful for it. 
 
If you think about it, please say a prayer for us during this time.  Especially come tax season...lets hope all the BIG things are done by then.  We are very easy going people, and I pray that we continue to be that way through the building process.
