We moved! My goodness, after 2 1/2 years we thought this day would never come, and then it all happened so fast. We experienced a lot of bumps along the road in this journey of finding a home. The fact that we desired some land greatly limited our choices. There aren't very many small acreage properties in the Woodburn area.
God is so good. We thought we had found our future Kuykendall farm....a beautiful piece of property with a home needing a tremendous amount of work. After brainstorming how we would swing the necessary complete remodel while living there, a home I had fallen in love with came back on the market. I think we only had a shot at it because our previous offer had been turned down. Once their accepted offer fell through they contacted us. I waited to box up our stuff until I knew it was a for sure thing....and then I only had about two weeks to get it all done. We signed on a Monday, got the keys on Tuesday, cleaned on Wednesday, bought a fridge on Thursday, moved on Friday and Saturday, had a busy church day Sunday, completely emptied and cleaned our rental on Monday, and BJ left for a conference on Tuesday for the remainder of the week. Needless to say it was an exciting and exhausting week.
BJ's parents came to help on Friday. We greatly appreciated their help and Sally's yummy lunch.
The adventure begins......
