Car, House, and Very Many Blessings

Dear friends,

We started this blog 2 years ago. Yup, that means that we came back from our honeymoon 2 years ago. It seems like it was yesterday. Since then, you could read about what is going on in our lives every month. We would ask you to update us, too! We really want to hear from you!

This months we bought our very first car (yes, we own a vehicle now), and moved into our house (yes, we bought a house). But lets take it up where we left off... that is, Hungary.

Regi, Noi, and Amy

I was able to meet Kelly Davidson for the first time (I heard so much about her, she worked at Word of Life Hungary before I went there), who was the speaker of this year's Women Conference. I was also able to see many of my dear friends, and some of the babies who were born when we left for the States (9 months ago). I was so happy to have the opportunity to go to some of the staff people's houses and just talk with them. Timi and Monca were kind enough to let me and Amy stay with them for almost a week. To my surprise quite a few recent graduate of the Bible Institute came to the graduation, so I could see them, too. It was so good to hear how passionate they all are about God. The graduation ceremony was absolutely amazing! I was so glad to be there on Becky's graduation.

Once I left Word of Life, I had one more day at "home" (at my parent's house) before we left for the States. I packed, realized that I still cannot take all the things I would want to with me, spent time with my family and  friends, and eventually went to bed. Dave, Karen, Amy, and I had the same flights on the way back (we were able to switch one of our flights so that we could go all the way together). It was a lot easier trip than the one to Hungary. Amy didn't sleep more than 3 hours altogether, but she was a lot happier this time. : ) I cannot tell you how awesome it was to be able to hug and be hugged by my husband! I missed him so very much!

Since we are back we bought a car. Actually it was the first day we went to look for cars, and we only looked at one other before this one. God blessed us with a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am, and since then we have all the paperwork (registration, license plate, insurance, etc.) done. This car is really good! I loved to drive before, but now it is even more fun! : )

House #3

So we just (as in today!) bought a house! This is the first house we actually own, the last two houses we rented (not counting Dave's and Karen's house). So this is house #3 in 2 years. Not bad! : )
It is about 2200 square feet, 3 bedroom, 2 bathrooms. Nice yard, and garage. They left quite a few furniture in the house (3 beds, 2 recliner, 2 sofa chair, couch, crib, and other) and the kitchen is fully equipped.
We will post pictures of the inside in our next blog post. We are moving in either this weekend or the beginning of next week. Exciting!

There is a park with a nice playground 2 minutes from the house. How cool! God is good!
