When I got back to the states I was living at home...which I would recomend to anyone. For some of us that may be difficult but in the long run, well worth it.
Around October Bryan and I decided to start looking for a flat. We knew we needed to find someplace to call "home" after we were married. "Home"...what is HOME, humm??? (another post for another day)
After much searching we came across some nice flats and really felt like the Lord gave us the okay. It was in our price range and in a good location...EXACTLY 10 min from both of our parents. Once we decded to take it, I moved in during the month of October. We were so excited to begin making OUR home. Funny how God can make any situation amazing....when I moved in all I had was my bed, computer and desk...not much. But that was okay for us. Whenever Bryan would come visit me, we would make dinner (with the 2 pots we had) and put out our pic-nic blanket and eat on the floor. It was great. We came to the conclusion that we could not afford furniture and that if we had to buy big pillows to sit on then that would be all we had.
Around the end of November, just weeks before the wedding, we got a phone call from a family friend. She said that the Lord laid it upon her heart to get rid of the furniture she had in her condo and that if we wanted it we could come and get it. What a blessing. Not expecting too much, Bryan and I went down to her place and to our surprise there was much more than we expected....MUCH MUCH MORE! We left her place with a truck load of furniture...our entire apartment is furnished now. What a blessing that was.
We are enjoying our little place. I do not have pictures to post at the moment but I will try and describe it to you...we have a little one bedroom flat with an office (that we use as a spare bedroom), kitchen and living room. There is a laundry closet but we do not have a washer and dryer so we use our laundry mat. Which we are actually enjoying at times because we have had interesting conversations with folks waiting on their clothes.
Life has been and adventure and everyday we live it with the Lord excited to see what He has in store for us.
