The Freedom to Live One Day at a Time

Image
  Starting out on our moving adventure, I had my doubts about whether we made the right choice. We’ve definitely had our challenges getting here and the process of knowing where God wants us to settle has been anything but easy. But, I can honestly say that our time here has been a blessing from the Lord!! I find being an “Oregonian” relaxing and awe-inspiring. The pure beauty and variety of nature in this state has me wanting to get up every morning with energy and a readiness to try something new! From seeing giant waterfalls, to experiencing unique ocean views, I feel like we’ve often found paradise on earth. ⛰️🌲🌄 At this point, I don’t feel like we are on vacation anymore. But, I also don’t feel like a full-time resident yet. We are still on the search for the house and area we want to live. We have come so close, but the offer we made on the house we thought was possibly our new home was rejected. We are praying for a definite answer to finding where God wants us to be.

STAYING BUSY, WHILE ... WE... WAIT

 Hello again, blogger friends!! Just updating you all on the past few weeks we've been here in Oregon! We have looked at several houses in the area, but until last week, we just didn't find any that checked off most of our list. So we traveled a little farther inland. We were interested in a couple different houses near Salem. We spent the week asking the realtor several questions, discussed our options, and decided to put an offer on one of the houses. So, it's just a waiting game at this point, which we are really used to. In the meantime, we've been really taking in the coast and some of the local tourist attractions. The good thing is, most places are pretty empty this time of year. We had some beautiful weather to enjoy the outdoors. And a few rainy days, when we visited a museum and had LOTS of coffee. The cool thing about Oregon is they have several drive-up (and walk-up) coffee kiosks can be found in almost every town! That's definitely not an Indiana thing!
