After a crazy series of events, Kevin and I have put a contract on this wonderful 3 acre plot right outside city limits (only 5 minutes outside). It was too good of a deal to pass up. I know that we have only lived in the house we are currently in for a short 18 months, but God has laid on our hearts a desire for a different way of life. We long to have a small piece of earth to tend. WE know it will not be an "easier" way of life, but we don't desire "easier", just different. I am excited and prayerful about what is to come, and truly feel that the Lord has and is leading each step. Our wish is to live outside and enjoy God's beautiful creation, so we our taking steps to build (or move, details later) a house that will be sufficient to live in without wasted space. But first we have to close on it to make it official!

How exciting! The land looks beautiful. I grew up on about 3 acres. You will love being able to have batting practice in the front yard, ride 4-wheelers, and make up a dance routine all in your yard at the same time! I love looking at house plans, so if you need help, let me know!
