Our New to Us Suburban

Our New Suburban (new to us!)
A few months ago we learned our van was going to die.  It wasn't a matter of if but of when.  I truly didn't want the "when" to take place when I had the van.  So we parked the van, and we all squished everywhere and anywhere in our little Honda Civic.  We are so thankful to only have one child in a booster seat still!  We prayed for the Lord to open the right doors for us in the car search endeavor.  We made some contacts to some Christian car dealers we knew, and we waited.  Just before our school graduation, the Lord gave us the opportunity to purchase our suburban.  We are so pleased.  Dan and I had both desired to buy one, and we had discussed it numerous times, but the market for them here doesn't work for this pastor's family income.  The Lord provide far and above what we ever thought we would be able to afford.  The girls are so excited to have room to stretch out and be comfortable, and it makes for much happier kids as we travel more than the ten miles back and forth to church.  I am so pleased to not have to squish all my Sam's Club purchases in the back of our Honda. LOL..

I wanted to be sure to share this special blessing along.  Truly, God will give us the desires of our heart!  I am so thankful to serve an amazing God!
