almost gone. . .

Today it is saturday and Steve leaves For Winnipeg on monday and works his first shift. We are excited that the time has finally come but still very nervous with the process ahead. You see, we have yet to buy a house in the city. Mainly because our funds have not arrived yet. They are arriving this week and Steve hopes to make an offer on Tuesday on a house. Although it wasn't as big and exactly what we wanted, it is empty, which allows for quick posession and means we can possibly be living in the city in a couple of weeks. The house has some cosmetic work to do, bringing it out of the "80's" you could say. Our renters move into our house on March 27, so the kids and I may be homeless for a couple weeks until all the financing and paper work goes through for the house. We will probably find shelter over at Granny and Grandpas since they are back in after the fire. In the mean time, Steve will be living Sherry and Denis's place (sister and brother in law) . I just hope they don't get sick of him and throw him out! I will post later this week about the house and whether we got it or not. So please, everyone pray that this offer is accepted and the whole process can be fast and we can have a home quick!
Meanwhile, Steve has been busy saying goodbye to everyone before he leaves, and last thursday his Youth For Christ drop in kids held him a surprise going away party. It was lots of fun and we all enjoyed the gifts, food and fellowship. Since I have a couple more weeks here myself, the reality of the move has yet to sink in.
