friday & the little blue house.

Hi.

Did you know today is Friday?
My, how it's sneaked up on us all.  I guess that's what 3-day weekends will do to you.
This weekend is going to be a good one.

Tonight...
I have our first all-nighter of the year.
14 straight hours with high school students?
Yes please.
(I think.)

Tomorrow...
sleep.  & grocery shopping.  & sleep.

Sunday...
church.  & a look inside the little blue house.

Okay, about this house...
From what we know now, it's perfect.
3 bedrooms, 1 bath.
a long driveway.
a 2 car garage.
a bay window.
right in our price range.
a good backyard for Den & dinner parties.
in the neighborhood where we want to buy one day.
a big, shady tree that covers the front yard.
made in the 1920's with tons of charm.
updated electric and plumbing.

I can't help it.
I've been dreaming about it. (so has Dan.)
I see myself stringing lights in the backyard.
all the dinner parties on picnic tables.
laying with my babies on a blanket in the front yard.
walking on the original redwood floors.
walking down the historic tree-lined streets.

I try not to get too ahead of myself, but that seems to be my middle name.
(Kaylyn I'm-too-ahead-of-myself)

Ah, but we will see.
So if you think about it at 2pm on Sunday afternoon, say a little prayer for the Unterkofler's and the little blue house.

Be back Monday!
Happy weekend.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

  3. All-nighter w/high schoolers...yikes! I'll pray for THAT, too! As for the little blue house...sigh. Oh, how God loves it when we dream those big sweet dreams from Him! I have the same sweet God-pictures for a medium-sized white farmhouse off a country road in the Midwest...I can just see the fireplace & the wood floors & all the ministry & memories inside...so...I will definitely be praying for you & the little blue house! :-)

    Acts 17:25...He determines our times and the EXACT PLACES WHERE WE WILL LIVE. I love it! :-)
