This year is going to be a big year for the Kealey family. We have a lot going one and are very excited about slowly revealing to you what is happening in our lives!!!
So, many of you may be thinking we bought ourselves a nice house , with a big yard for the kids to play in and ride their bikes. Maybe in a nice established neighborhood with lots of kids to play with. If you are one of those thinking that then you are very far from the truth :)
Before I actually tell you, or show you a picture of what we bought I want to give you a little background....
For a very long time, we (Jason and I), have been praying about the plan God has for our lives and the direction He wants us to go. We have sought His will in every decision we have made as a married couple. We have sought His will in all the decisions we have made regarding our children. We have not once made a decision without thinking about the pros and cons and what consequences (both good and bad) our decisions will have on our future.
Our family is in the process of something big right now. Some of you know what we are doing, but until we are 100% sure it is a go we aren't going to reveal it here. If you do know we ask that you just continue to pray for us throughout this process! And if you don't know yet, well, just stick around and you'll find out in another update!
With that being said, the first major change in our family happened just last week. Friday was the last day of school for Faith and Rylan. After a lot (and I mean A LOT) of prayer, council, and talks we decided that I would start homeschooling the kids. There were a few factors that went into our decision, but mostly it was just us following Gods plan for our life.
The next big change came in the purchase of our first home. When we first moved to Georgia we thought we would rent for a year and find out where we wanted to live before we bought a house. But again, God had a different plan. We are embarking on an adventure that is written by our Creator and we are so excited. We know it will not always be easy and there will be tears and days of wondering if we made the right decision but the peace we have about the decision we made is our assurance it was God.
So, what is it you ask? Well, on May 1,2013 when our lease is up on our 1800sqft home, this Kealey family of 6 will all be moving into our newly purchased 300sqft RV. Yes, you read that right, we are becoming full time Rvers. We signed the papers, sealed the deal and will pick it up on Monday. Jason will spend the next few months renovating the inside....putting in hard wood floors, bunk beds in the back bedroom, installing a new sleeper sofa, some additional storage and a few other minor projects.
I never thought our first 'home' purchase would be an RV but now that it is I couldn't be more excited. We know it is not forever, but it is just a step in the direction of the plan God has for us. It makes complete sense for the adventure we are about to begin and we look forward to seeing what God has in store for us!
Now, we just have to name it.....
