Moving...(again)!

Apparently the Cooper name is currently synonymous with CHAOS.  So with that in mind, we bought a house. For those just coming to the party, within the last 6 months: we have journeyed with my mother and her stem cell transplant, moved to Indiana, accepted the call of Pastor, adopted a new born,...
Yes, you heard me right...we bought a house.  The house is larger than we ever thought we would be able to own.  While dated, it is clean and we look forward to many memories and stories of God's faithfulness to be shared here. Admittedly this is premature, since we do not officially close until the end of September, BUT our immediate family is eager to see pictures of our soon-to-be home. So for the them...Here you go! (captions below)

Congratulations! What a great place, and what's so nice is that it's really a blank slate (well, minus the floors and that stripey bathroom). So much potential! We look forward to visiting you in it soon. Seriously. S-O-O-N!
