Spokane House Update #2

Our house has been rented! Praise God! After 5 months of waiting, tenants will be moving in to our house on 15 January and we are so excited! Thank you all for your prayers regarding this. Below is a picture of our house after they back hoed/shoveled/blew all the snow away. This was taken last week and I think they have gotten 8 more inches since then (which according to some news reports makes the Spokane total 6 1/2 feet!!). Also, the pipe issues were fixed today by "Sam the plumber" (this is what he called himself when he called on the phone today) and everything should be in good working order. Thanks again for praying for us. God is good! Also, if you are in need of a rental manager or realtor in the Spokane area, I can recommend some great ones!

Our house!

Finally, after 2 months of living here, I am posting a picture of our house! We moved in the end of August to a 4 bed/ 3 bath brand new house on the base. The contractors who act as our property managers were planning to demolish our 50 year old 3 bed/ 2 bath house we were living in. We were so glad to move into a bigger house since are family keeps growing. Below are pictures of the front of our house with desert landscaping (this is very exciting for us because we had a ton of grass at our old house that was very hard to keep up to the housing standard of greeness because WE LIVE IN A DESERT!). Also posted are pictures of our kitchen with lots more cupboard/counter space and, one of my favorite features... a regular size sink! Our last house had 4 inch deep sink that was very hard to wash our dishes in. Also, not shown, is a water softener/filter. It is so nice to be able to not have to pay for water that is drinkable. People who had visited us may remember how icky it tasted.
Coming soon (hopefully it will be sooner than 2 months), I will post room pics and the best feature of all... the backyard park!

To the left of where this picture is taken are two pantries and the room on the other side of the wall is a full size laundry room with utility sink and more cupboard space.

Look how deep this is!
Pull out faucet and water filter

In case you were wondering what are old base house looked like.. this is is the first pic that Chris texted me when I was still living in Spokane.

P.S. I think I set a record for myself by posting 4 posts today! I kept having ideas of what to post in my mind but hadn't had time to post. Stay tuned for a very exciting post on 30 Oct, Thursday, we have our ultrasound and will hopefully find out if we are expecting a baby girl or a baby boy. We will keep you posted!
