Moving On Out...

It's funny how God works. Since the spring, Trav and I have been trying to figure out where we would live after the wedding. We tossed around the apartment idea...but quickly exed that due to rent prices. Then the idea of renting a house sounded great and the search began. We found a couple but it was too far out to go ahead and go for it. We than decided we would bounce back and forth between family after the wedding until we found something. We were looking so hard for the perfect place that we didn't realize when you look so hard for something and try to figure it out yourself, God puts something amazing in front of you that had been right under your nose all along. Well, he did that with RainTree! It was right under our nose ( or a hop, skip, and a jump away from Trav's house) all along!

The Saturday before our wedding, Trav's mom and Katie were out with Van and stumbled across a "For Rent" sign at the complex near there house. They decided to take a walk thru and grab some info...only to find it was a steller deal and a great place. Trav quick went and checked it out to find he really liked it too. That afternoon, on my way to our friends wedding, I stopped by RainTree with Katie and got a tour as well. I loved it! I was already picturing how our stuff would look inside...and the walk-in closet definetly sealed the deal. When we left, the papers were signed and the move in date set!

We officially moved in on Sunday, August 10. After the Honeymoon, Heidi and Dan were so gracious and let us live with them till we moved in! They set up the cutest room for us, filled with pictures from the wedding. And, it was fun waking up to little Van Man everyday! Now, that we are moved in, it's fun playing house! We cooked Hamburger Helper on our first night and slept in our sleeping bags on the floor in our room. (our bed is being delivered tomorrow). It's been such a fun adventure....and learning how to live with a roommate of the opposite gender! We are so thankful for how God placed RainTree in our lives ( and budget!!!) We can't wait to get everything set up and have everyone over!!!!
