Well, Hiedi & I accepted an offer on our condo. It's a weird feeling. We're both really happy with what we got out of it (provided everything goes through), but it's still a big change, and change is rarely easy - at least not for me. We're going to be moving into a 3 bedroom ranch that's about 10 minutes north of Morton. Mom & Dad Pfaffmann own it and are renting it to us. It could use a little TLC and Heidi & I are excited to get to do some "fix-up" projects. :-)
We have mixed emotions about the selling and moving, but we both believe it's a Biblically wise decision for us. We were motivated strongly by the Crown Financial Bible Study we went through with a small group from Washington. The Biblical passages regarding debt and good stewardship convicted both of us to strive to be better stewards of what we've been given.
Now the challenge will be to not spend the money we're saving by moving on a nicer lifestyle. We're thankful for the accountability of the Word and of each other. God has been incredibly faithful through this whole process, and we're very thankful for the advice of our family and friends.

It's funny you say it could use a little "TLC" because you probably mean "tender loving care" but it could also be a pun for the TV station TLC, which often features home fixer shows.
