We Got It!!!!

Thanks to the hard work and efforts of our sponsor, Chris Fuhriman, we got a four bedroom house today during the housing draw.  
Last night Emily prayed one last time to petition the Lord for a home that would work for the family.  She had a comforting and reassuring feeling about the four bedroom.  We thought that we were third on the list to draw and were not sure if we would get what we wanted.  This morning Chris called me and told me we were  second on the list and that he had already talked to the number one guy and they wanted a different place, we got it!  We just had to actually go through the draw (NFL Draft).  As it turns out some guy from housing pontificated for over half an hour before the officers got to start picking.

Thanks to all those that helped us make up our minds and we look forward to seeing you out there!

(Not actual house, but similar)

Review of the advantages of the four bedroom:
1.  Four bedrooms
2.  1800 square feet
3.  Laundry room rather than laundry closet
4.  Detached garage for lots of storage
5.  Bus service to elementary school

Below is a map of West Point and the relative position of the new house.

Congrats on the new place. I am not the person to correct anyone's spelling but it looks like you missed a "T" at the beginning of your post.

If it weren't for spell check, I would be up a creek without a paddle.

Nice blog!
