I'm Waaaayy behind!!

Well, since it has been such a long time since I have posted, I thought it was time I try to catch up, post some pictures and write some words! Life here has been CRAAAAZZZZYYY! First off, after two years of waiting and lots of prayer we have finally sold our house in Indiana! As my good friend Autums says, that was the longest running episode of "This Old House." It was high time for that show to be cancelled and the Franklin Family to move on! I will save you (and my fingers from having to type) all of the drama involved with selling our house! Many of you know that we bought it as a foreclosed home and worked on it for 2 years. We were planning on living in it much longer than we were able to, but God and the Army had different plans for us. We are thankful for the experience and the lessons we have learned are irreplaceable, but I do have to say that it is going to take alot of convincing for me to buy another house for awhile! I have posted some before and after pictures of our house for your enjoyment. :)

The house as it looked the day we moved in.
