The Fifth

Hey everybody. How's everything going?

Today is mine and Amy's five month anniversary. Five whole big months. Pretty crazy, hey.

It's been a blast so far. We celebrated tonight with an awesome dinner - chicken, dressing, fresh veggies. After that we went and threw our arms out at the park. There is something a little weird about playing catch in January, but it was great.

PS - We're in the middle of dealings with the real estate agents. Pray that God gives us favor in the eyes of both the real estate agents and the owners of the houses we apply to rent. We've seen some really beautiful ones for descent prices (by Australian standards). Sometimes students with little income aren't necessarily ideal tenants, but we're believing for a great place at a great price.

congrats...you guys are clebrating each month which si something i wanted to do but didn't because we lived with mom and dad so it would've been kinda hard...it's nice isn't it?

Wow! five months already!

are you guys only applying to rent? or could you apply to own? That way you're building an investment more than just paying for somewhere to live..you know?

And playing catch isn't that far fetched..I saw someone on a motorcycle today.....

Im pretty sure that playing catch is not far fetched ( haha far fetched lol...) Currently in Carleton County there is NO SNOW, GREEN GRASSish... and it is like 20 out.. im guess there but its WARM! anyways... i didnt even wear like a jacket out today... im pretty sure the only reason why its acutally a little chilly is cause of the wind! INSANE!!!
Anyways... 5 months! yay! Hurray! Does it feel like it? Or does it feel longer?
Im praying that you get the house... that will be exciting; a place of your own even if its only for a year and half more! wow! that much longer... im really praying you guys will be able to come home for Christmas next year! That would be exciting! But thats another like 11 months away!
luv you guys!

Happy Anniversary...It's hard to believe that it's been five months already!!!! But time is flying by...so it probably won't feel much longer,and you'll be moving home... or wherever you deceide to live. If any of that made sense... it was a long day at work! :)
Love yas!
