The fall brought something new...

I love fall... the crisp air is refreshing and the colours of nature just brings me warmth. So I just had to capture it during my neighbourhood walks with my blackberry (My camera is still dead, and I'm too broke to buy a new one).

This was my neighbourhood. Isn't it so pretty even in dark foggy day?

My DD loved it there, we knew pretty much everyone on the street. And she adored all the big kids playing outside wanting to play with them as well.

She also loved the yard. And this time of year, the yard was extra fun with tons of piles of leaves to jump on!

So it was a little bittersweet saying goodbye. Two weeks ago, we were blessed with a home that we can call ours. 

Having the keys in our hands was kinda unbelievable.

I think she really liked it the moment we went in.

And I really don't mind having this kitchen to call my own!

I can't wait to make wonderful healthy meals here! And oh I can't wait to use all my kitchen gadgets again. It was all packed away in the storage unit for more than a year :(

Anyhoo, I still have tons of boxes to unpack and furniture to assemble (yup, we went to Ikea, lol). And I will certainly keep the blog posted when I'm done with the new place.

Thank you Lord for this truly amazing blessing!

My old neighbourhood was certainly quaint and perfect for us. But I'm sure our new one will be a great one for my DD to grow up in. And besides, we still have my parents and my DD's home daycare in the old neighbourhood so we can certainly visit anytime :) 

Loved Home For Sale

Our house is out in the market for sale! This is such a big step in our lives because finally after a year of hard financial starvation, we are being blessed and will be house hunting in the Big City.

Original from here

Our house was bought by my hubby before we got married and it is in a smaller city about an hour away from Toronto, where we are from. I moved in with my hubby right after getting married and this is the house where we started our married life in. We got pregnant and became a family in this house. I really cherish the memories I have there from preparing our home for a baby to learning the ropes of being a new parent. The neighborhood was so peaceful and so is the city itself.

Unfortunately, I was having the hardest time adjusting living there so far away from my parents and my friends. It didn't help either that I couldn't find a job there as well. So when my daughter was only 6 months old, we decided to move back to the Big city with my folks. They are very generous to have us there and we got comfortable in their big home. We eventually found someone to rent our house for the time being.

For over a year we have been debating of moving back or selling the place. And I think God was telling us to stop planning and worrying about our future and just take a step of faith. And so we did. 

The house is on the market now and as soon as we get it sold, we are looking to buy a permanent HOME in the big city. Somehow, it all made sense and God's plan for our family unraveling before our eyes. Now, I'm not expecting for things to go smooth sailing but as long I trust in Him, He will get everything done in his time.
