SOLD!

We just completed the process for closing on our house in Georgia today! This is the end of a chapter, so to speak. For those not familiar with the story, we used to live in Washington, GA. After we had Luke we wanted to move to Montgomery, Alabama since all of our family is here and we thought it was extremely important to raise him close to his grandparents. So, I found a job here, took it, and we moved. In any case, we bought a house here in the Old Cloverdale historic district and still had a place in GA, thus paying 2 mortgages. It was manageable, but not preferable paying 2 mortgages, but we had made the prayerful decision to move, and God had blessed us with the means to be employed, move, have somewhere to live, and pay 2 mortgages. So, we trusted Him to remove the extra mortgage and He did! In any case, the final tie binding us to our old place has been severed and we feel completely free to move on wwith the wonderful, new life God has blessed us with! Thanks for the prayers and encouragement from all our friends and family along the way. We are truly blessed.

LOL...I was wondering who Anonymous was! Thanks, y'all. It's a huge relief to be out from under that house payment. What was even worse was the fact that we had to pay almost 3 times our normal house insurance on the house in GA because it was unoccupied and the only folks who would insure it were Lloyds of London!!! We just cancelled that policy, too, so that'll help immensely.

Great news indeed. I think you were supposed to go to Disney World first, before the house would sell. It's a good thing you did.
