Welcome Home!

Yesterday Jonathan and I officially became homeowners as we closed on our new home! This has been a journey of several months for us that began when we first saw the "for sale" sign go up on this house only a few blocks from our current home. We put a bid on it, got turned down, got another opportunity, waited a long time, then finally got the good news that we were accepted. A month long escrow later we got the keys!

Jonathan was more than pleased to yank that "for sale" sign out of the yard even in the freezing cold darkness of last night.

Anna Kate checks out her new home....seems like lots of exploring is in store.

We are so thankful for our new home that God has blessed us with. Please pray for us as we begin the moving process with one pregnant mom and a toddler running full speed ahead!

Yay! So happy for you guys. Good luck in all the moving process. We will definitely be praying for a smooth transition, quick unpacking, and a calm settling for Anna Kate as she adjusts to her new home. Love you guys. Noelle & Jeffrey

I feel like your blog needs a voice over saying,

"Welcome home, Lair Family.
Welcome home."

circa de Extreme Home Makeover. and maybe they could throw in a free huge screen TV while they were at it.
