Pinch me...

Friday was a day I never thought would come...

~We signed the papers on our subdivide!!~

Over FIVE years ago we sat in the same office beginning this adventure...

having no clue what lay ahead.

(I dare say, if we knew, we wouldn't have done it!?!)

But we did it!

Mark did it, actually!

He poured himself into this project,

spent many hours, tons of money, planning and thinking...

We prayed and prayed over this project...

Some things that looked hopeless, God made them good.

Things that seemed impossible, were possible.

During highs and lows, God was faithful in it all.

For years we have held this property with an open hand...

heading through open doors and being willing to detour when a door shut.

Getting near the end and learning all could be lost (literally),

we got to really see what holding our lives with open hands means.

But here we sit, waiting the last of the waits.

We've done what needs to be done and signed what needs to be signed.

Final approval is on its way, finally!
