Christmas has delayed the progress on our house. Now we have no idea when it will be finished. The last the contractor said was he would have it ready by January 2010. LOL The flooring has to be aclimated to the rooms before it can be layed. It should be aclimated by now in my opinion. Hopefully they will start working again on Monday. We can hardly wait. This apartment is closing in on us. It was good to get away for a few days. We went to spend Christmas with the grandbabies. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. Betty

About Legacy Retirement Village
Dear friends, Some of you were asking about the specs of the new house. You can learn more about the house and Legacy Retirement Village by visiting the website: www.legacyretirementvillage.org Betty
Hello Friends, Jay and I are moving to Heritage Place at Legacy Retirement Village. I am using this blog site to keep you updated about our move. We signed the contract today, Monday, July 28, 2008 so we officially have a home, but as you can see by the pictures, it is in the beginning stages. This has been an amazing move of God for us. We never would have believed we would be moving into a brand new house. More than a year ago, I was talking to God and told him I had never lived in a new house that no one had lived in before. Mind you I didn't ask him for a new house, but was just talking things over with him. He reminded me the other day of our conversation a year ago. God is so good. He gives us the desires of our hearts even if we don't ask for them. Ain't God good? I will be adding new pictures as we go along so you can get just as excited as we do. Our new address will be: 2201 Heritage Place Drive, NW, Cleveland, Tn 37312. Wow! I am so excited. Betty
