I feel like we have officially made our first step toward being overseas missionaries. We have moved into the apartment above Ben's parent's garage. They built a garage in the fall which is something they have been wanting to do for awhile, and this is when we were talking seriously about missions and going to New Tribes in the fall. They decided to put an apartment above the garage because of this, and Ben did a lot of the work on the garage (drywall, trim, floor, etc) to make it a little cheaper. We are so thankful to them for allowing us to live there where we can save money... and then in the fall it'll give us a place to come home to once we start school.
So last week we packed up all of our things and moved into the apartment. It's smaller than where we were living, so we have quite a few things in boxes that will stay there until we go to school. It was a little sad to leave our first home (which we rented) because it was our own place and it was our first place... but I know this is just the first time of moving... we will be doing it many more times in the next few years.
We haven't received our official acceptance yet to New Tribes Bible Institute, but we have sent everything in, and we have received our "unofficial" acceptance. We are excited... nervous, but excited :)
