Move #2

At some point in the early spring of 2011, a bank took over ownership of the duplex we were renting. Several months went by where there were no changes. We continued paying rent, obviously, just wrote the check out to someone else. We had several interested buyers come through and view the duplex. It wasn't until May that we received a phone call saying they have an accepted offer and though our lease was good through September 2011, the gentleman purchasing the property would really like for us to be out by June.
Perfect. Timing. Not. :(
So, as if we didn't have enough stress at the time, with our wedding right around the corner (6.11.11) we decided to move. But where? We had looked around and didn't really find anything. We didn't want to make a rash decision because we were in a hurry. We weren't in a position to buy what we wanted yet. So, we moved in to Nana & Papa's basement. With a lot of help from our family, we packed everything up and made the move over Memorial Day Weekend. At that time, the plan was for this to be rather temporary. We stayed there from The end of May to mid December. As always, it turned out God had a special plan in us being there. Those six and a half months were very special times spent with Nana and Papa.
It turns out that if you are surrounded by love, you have everything you'll ever need... And the best is yet to come...
