Promise Acre: Our Journey

[promiseacres]

Merry Christmas BYH friends. It's been a busy month. Kid's and are up waiting for DH to wake up this Christmas morn... so reminiscin over 2018. Have had so many answered prayers!

We have been so blessed this year! Bought our 20 acre farm and now making plans on getting it renovated. Lots of work ahead but this is a dream come true!!
Brought Daisy, the kid's horse in May. She's been absolutely perfect for our family. And this fall kids and I were able to get some trail riding in.
DS was baptized in October then this past Sunday DH was baptized and we became members of our church. Something I had desired for a long time. DH and I had a rough time this Spring and Summer...really questioned our marriage...despite 17 years together. All I know is God is good as we definitely can't make things work on our own.
My favorite bunny breed Velveteen lops is on its way to being a real breed as they passed at National convention in November, so 2 more passes! !
There have been hard things....feels like everyone is moving away...both our Pastors, then my big sis is moving next week to Tennessee and my Dad is making plans to move up to the Michigan UP next year... but God is good. Time to open presents!

Our afternoon. Weather was beautiful, 45 and sunny! So snuck outside while everyone was watching a movie or putting together legos. Just time with my horse and dog.

Did some measurements yesterday...and deeper inspections. The basement stairs needs fully replaced and new brace posts on either sides. DH was working on the sump pump tubing, needs replaced with new fittings but does work and so far no water other than in the pit.

Discovered why we have sagging upstairs this wall was moved and needs moved back 3 feet to the left

Not sure if you can see where a door used to be under the cabinets... another place they removed a wall that needs replaced or a beam...
