Our rental in Oregon


We looked for a few weeks for a rental house. (Meanwhile our amazing friends the Guses let us live in their home with them!!) Rental agencies in the area would only rent 4 bedroom homes to us because of the number of people in our family. Which of course, just coming from Belize seemed a bit overkill! :-) Plus, the 4 bedroom homes were MUCH more expensive. We really prayed to find a place in the country. What we *did* find was a very nice place, at the end of a dead end street in the city..but on a double lot with acreage next door! Yay! It is only a 3 bedroom but the landlady agreed to rent it to us because it has a separate living quarters which if the girls put carpet down would make for a very nice apartment for them!


The 'red' side of the house is the separate living quarters, a.k.a Ashley & Amanda's apartment. It was actually once an antique store! It's fun living in an old historic town!




It was amazing to see how the Lord answered even the smallest prayers in regard to the rental.. right next door to us lives 2 beautiful horses! JUST like in Belize! Laura is thrilled to have horsey neighbors again!


Grace, Laura & Coco hang out in the back yard

This is the lovely view out of our living room window.. so pretty! We are blessed and settled down for the Fall and Winter. Now we are praying about what our next move will be. The rent here is very expensive.. we hope to buy our own place next year. Not sure where yet but we know that the Lord will lead us on as he wills. We are so grateful for his provision!

but the LORD directeth his steps
