Mission (almost) Accomplished

Photobucket

Some very exciting news to share!  After only a week of our Knoxville home being on the market, a cash offer was made today and we accepted.  Closing is in two weeks per the buyers request.  Can you believe it?!  God has certainly had His hand in every aspect of this move, fully confirming to Joe and I that this place is His will for us. 

We've also had the pleasure of meeting three of the eight homeowners on this small, dead-end street who have been very welcoming and eager to help in any way they can.  One neighbor, nick-named, "Bull" (oh yes, we're definitely in the country, ha!) has been so kind.  He raises beef cattle on his 200 plus acres and offered to bush hog our pasture for the hay since we don't have our own equipment yet.  We look forward to the day when we can keep our own hay for animals, but first thing's first.  The lay of the land is beautiful and I will post a photo once the bailing is complete.  So far Bull has harvested nine bails with more to come.  He's also been giving Noah, Anna and Lilly tractor rides and the above photo is of Anna hanging out leisurely watching him till the dirt for our future garden.  We're very grateful for kind neighbors and hope that we can bless their lives like they have ours already.
