The Delps Are Moving!!!!

That's right! Our dream for the past few years is finally becoming an reality. With our changing priorities (see: new baby), it was becoming more and more apparent that we needed to find something bigger and a little more permanent. So on July 4th, we signed into a Lease Purchase. We will be moving into our new place on August 1 (or so) and we will buy the property officially either in December or January. This month is a whirlwind of packing and ripping up carpet and trying to figure out how the heck we are going to pull this off. The house needs work. Actually it could use quite a bit of work. However, it has a ton more space and is a project that Missy and I can finally sink our teeth into, which we love.

This move should also help with the blogging as the computer will no longer be in the same room as where young Riley sleeps. It WILL, however, be in the room that the last tenants used to smoke pot in so if my posts seem more laid back and reference "the munchies", you will know why.

If you think of it, please pray. We have taken a big leap of faith in so many ways and are trusting God will be there for us. Please pray that we will keep trusting Him even when things may look and get a little (or alot) crazy.

We are so pumped and hope that all of you who read this will be able to come by and visit with us some time in your travels.

One very positive sign is that Riley seems to like the house already. When we are over there ripping up carpet or staples or whatever, he just sits in his bouncer seat and talks and laughs and kicks. Then after a while, he simply falls asleep. I guess the place feels like home to him already.

Congrats Delp. I never saw the old one, but hopefully I'll be able to see this one some day. Where are you moving??
