More Packing and Sorting...

Once again, Spunky Shane and I have spent the last couple of days packing and sorting, packing and sorting. Our home is looking and sounding very empty. Its sad to see our home of 8 years looking this way and Its sad to pack away our personal belongings, it makes our home feel less and less homely.
Its probably a good thing that our home is feeling less and less homely though, because in less than 4 weeks, ready or not, we will be walking out of this house for the very last time. In less than 4 weeks this house will belong to another family and they will make it their home.

At the end of the day I know Its just a house, that's all it is, just a house, but I know I'll still cry when that day comes and we drive out of the driveway for the very last time.
I have so many memories in this home with my BEAUTIFUL Family. We bought this house about 8 years ago, the girls were only about 1 and 3 years old, now they are 9 and 11 years old. We have many, many BEAUTIFUL memories here, we have GREAT neighbours and we've loved living here, so its going to be very sad to say good bye to our home and its going to be very sad to watch the girls say goodbye to there much loved home also! 

I know no one forced us to do this, we chose to sell our home to travel and connect more with each other and grow closer as a family. We also chose to do this because we felt God calling us to travel Australia and connect with people. We are very happy with the chooses we've made, its just that some sacrifices are a bit harder than others, but that's okay because its all part of the journey!

Even though its going to be hard to leave everything behind, we are so VERY BLESSED to have such a VERY Special journey ahead of us...Yes, some steps are going to be difficult, but some steps are also going to be VERY Exciting and its all part of this journey of ours. We believe what lies before us is far greater than what we leave behind, so even though its difficult to say goodbye, we believe its going to be well worth every sacrifice we make ...

Lately I'm reminded of this verse... Romans 8:28...
And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them.

Love that Verse! I'll keep this verse in mind as I spend the next few weeks packing and sorting!!
Take care,
