The Time Has Come

My New Homestead - City to Ranch. No longer, City to City to Ranch. Our time in Saskatoon is nearing the end as Coy and I officially make the move to the ranch in less than 2 months (hopefully).  We knew this time would come and despite many things along the way that have changed OUR timeline, we are very excited for the move back.  Coy would have moved home before he ever moved away to be honest, but this time in Saskatoon has been a nice transition for me!  I will miss the friends we have here in Stoon and our church/church family, and yet we are very excited for what the Lord has in store for us in Beechy.  For our family life, our new church and how God will use us in our new location in and out of the church. The Lord has been preparing us for a time such as this.

Thank the Lord for His guidance and His plans.  They are greater than what we know and what we could ever have planned for our life this far.  We are relying fully on Him as we move forward not only with a move home but also with expanding our family in June. All of this change at once can feel very overwhelming for us, and as days go by we realize our need more and more for Jesus in our lives.  Patience, peace and endurance as we prepare a home site while living away, pack our boxes in the midst of full time work and tired minds and bodies at the end of the day and still trying to set aside time to prepare our selves for parenthood and what this will look like after baby is born.  All very exciting things, yet it all takes time. We trust the Lord in all things knowing He WILL keep us under His wings as we seek Him and put Him first in all we do.

Here is a sneek peek at where our house trailer will be set up. First the site itself, then the views that we will have from some of our windows. I can't wait for summer time there and visitors in our own home finally!!!  Our home should make it to the ranch mid-May to end of May and hopefully no later. With brandings around that time and me being 8 months pregnant come mid-May, the trailer cannot come soon enough! I have started packing our place in Saskatoon here and things are starting to progress for the site at the ranch, so now we are just praying for a quick and safe delivery of our home ASAP.

 
This is where our trailer will be setup. Facing South with plenty of sunlight!
(plus blooming green trees and green grass soon!)
