We sold our house!!!!!!!! It is still surreal to us. It happened last weekend. We had a couple come through the house on Friday. They made an offer on Saturday, we counter-offered on Saturday night and they accepted on Sunday afternoon. Yes....that is how fast it happened. I will be honest to say that I was not really prepared to move from my house or my neighborhood. We have wonderful neighbors, including one of them who is our babysitter. We like our house and with Tim being somewhat out of commission, we were prepared and okay with being here for the summer. We are again reminded that God is in control and His timing is best. So, "now what?" you might ask. We have decided to rent for awhile. We are totally sure where we want to live (some of that depends on where Tim finds a more permanent job) or where we will find a house we like. We know the general area, but thought it would be a bit too much to figure that all out in 5 weeks (we have to be out by June 22). One of my co-workers is moving away for a year and they were looking for someone to rent out their house for a year. We took a look at it and decided it would be a perfect fit for us and for them. We will be living in Georgetown Forest (in Hudsonville). We are excited for this new transition in our lives. We covet your prayers and we get things packed up and pray the twins will transition okay.
As for other updates. Last Saturday, I ran a 10K in downtown Grand Rapids. It felt good to get back into running. Unfortunately, it rained for most of the six mile run, but at least it was warm and there was no rain. It got me motivated to do more training, maybe a half marathon in the fall, but we'll see!
The twins are doing good. Still loving the outdoors. Not too many more words, but lots of gibberish. Nathan has an obsession with our vacuum and so I found a play vacuum on a garage sale and he follows me all over the house "vacuuming."

Congratulations on selling the house. So, are you moving back to Minnesota? Any thoughts?
Congrats on selling your home! We are moving to a new home this weekend and we are overwhelmed with the work it takes! And we have 4 big girls that live with us! Much more challenging with toddlers. Just take one day at a time and get your mom and dad to come and help. Mine can't this time and I miss their help!!
Best wishes!
Amy
