Well, we went to go look at a house in New Palestine a while ago.
It's amazing! It has a stone fireplace that goes from floor to ceiling.
The house is handicap accessible so if my dad or Nate ever went into a wheelchair, it would be fine.
There is one and a half acres too. And it has donkeys! Oh, and two dead people. A mother and a baby buried in 1918. Eh...
There is a barn too. The great room is gigantic! The whole house is just amazing. I like it much better than the one in Pendleton. My parents love it too. And it's only ten minutes away from the church. So, we went to look at it on Friday, and my parents wanted to put in an offer right then and there, but our realtor didn't make on fast enough so some other people made an offer and it was accepted!!!
Maybe God doesn't want us to have this house, or he does but He's making us wait. We could still make an offer if we sell our house quick. Speaking of that, we've all gone into heavy-duty cleaning mood. We emptying out the house and stuff.
I wonder how this will turn out. Only God knows. we should trust Him that He'll show us what he wants for us.

Not Impressed...
Well, we went to visit that house yesterday.
I'm not impressed by it.
The downstairs has more rooms than our downstairs, but they seem tinier.
There is a fireplace in the dining room that's covered in blue tiles. It doesn't work, but it looks really nice.
The kitchen is tiny, very tiny, good luck trying to fit a table in there. And it doesn't even have a dishwasher!
There is a sunroom that looks out to the backyard. There is a fountain in the backyard.
Oh, there's tons of closets too. Everywhere!
The upstairs was nice, it had two bedrooms and a bathroom.
The two rooms were big though. The stairs are very steep! You could fall easily.
There was stained glass above the doors too.
I like our house a lot better than that one. Our house seems brighter and roomier.
Easier to get around. I do like some parts of that house. Maybe 30% of it. Though I seem to be outvoted.
I think everyone else likes it. My mom is going to go see a house in New Palestine tonight though.
I wonder how she'll like that house.

His Will be Done...
My parents are thinking about moving out to a historic Victorian house they found in Pendleton.
We're going to see the inside of it tomorrow. It has a huge yard.
We've driven by the house a few times, it's really old, built in 1899, I think.
Pendleton is a LOT smaller than Noblesville.
It's quieter, not as much hustle and bustle going on. Not as much busy traffic either.
I guess I would describe it as quaint, it reminds me of the historic district in Noblesville, though not as busy.
There is a park nearby to the house, we could ride our bikes over to it.
I don't really want to move, I like where we are now, but maybe I'm just not giving it enough of a chance.
I guess Pendleton isn't so far away, but I just like that we are settled in here and everything.
We'd have to make new friends too. I just don't know...
I guess it would be nice to have a big yard, (poor Olivia, she'd have to mow it)
I'm sure I'll have a better opinion after we see the inside.
Well, if God wants us to move, He'll tell us, I'm sure.
I think that those words from the Lords Prayer apply here,
"Your Kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven"

Happy Independence Day!
Yesterday was the Fourth of July,
happy 231st birthday America!
We had tons of fun, we went to TWO parades,
set off our own fireworks, AND watched the fireworks at the high school!
We went to the Carmel parade in the morning. It was kind of, well...boring.
Then we went to Cici's Pizza for lunch. They have the BEST Macaroni pizza! It was so good!
After that, we came home and acted lazy for a few hours, then we went to the Noblesville parade.
It has better candy than the Carmel one, we all agreed. (Just how spoiled are we that we can debate which parades have better candy?!) Anyway, the Noblesville parade was a lot more interesting than the Carmel one. Want to hear something funny? We sat right on top of a sewer! It was very stinky. We moved away from it. Our friend Kaitlin was in the marching band. She was waving flags. It was fun to see her in the parade. We went and bought our own fireworks. Olivia and I went a bit overboard! ;) We got some really cool ones! We set them off right after dinner. The fireworks at the high school were pretty good too. All in all, it was a fun day.
