Moving Again! (Amanda)

In case you haven't heard, our life has not been chaotic enough, so we're moving again. I thought I was having trouble thinking past the next 24 hours a week ago! Now I'm really in trouble! And yes, this is coming a bit out of nowhere.

We were not actively looking for another home, but Ryan has been keeping his eye on the local market since we moved here. We can't buy anything right now, because our debt ratio is shot with the business loan. Anyway, our current lease is up the end of this month, and our current landlord is working toward putting this house back on the market. There are plenty of 1 and 2-bedroom rentals around, but not many places for a family. We didn't want to see our current place sold, and have 30 days notice that we had to find a new home with two small children, etc. So we semi-randomly decided to go look at this one house that has been listed for rent for a while. I think God was saving it just for us!

The house seems perfect for us -- in Barto less than two miles from the farm, an acre of land (all open yard for the girls to run), surrounded by nice neighbors with families and farmland, four bedrooms, a spacious eat-in kitchen (YES!), a fireplace in the living room!, and a two-car garage. We couldn't ask for a more perfect rental for our family. Ryleigh is very excited about moving, as are we!

So please keep us in your prayers as we prepare for and complete our second move in twelve months. And if you're not too far away and don't have plans for the Fourth of July, we could use some more muscles! :)

I could write tons more about how big the girls are getting, how Ashtyn's personality is really starting to show (we think she'll be the fiercely independent one; I just hope her affectionate side sticks, too), how well things are going with Butter Valley Harvest, how we are far busier than we ever imagined, and how much we had no idea we were getting ourselves into... But the girls and I spent the morning at the playground, I'm exhausted from chasing them around, I have a concert tonight with the Montgomery County Concert Band, and I should probably go pack something! Blessings to you!
