We have an exciting announcement!

So, how many of you thought I was going to announce another Gimenez on the way? :o) Ha!
We've found and rented a house! Yay!We are so excited about this house! It's within our budget! Super yay! It's a two bedroom home, so squeezing 5 kiddos in one bedroom may be a little challenging, but we've come up with some creative ideas. The kids are excited to create their own space. We're planning on getting two sets of bunk beds and a portable crib. The bedroom is about 11'5" x 10'5". Which is actually one of the bigger bedrooms we've seen. The kitchen is also large with lots of cabinets. I love that it has a huge porch! I can see us eating breakfast out there and maybe a hammock too!
It is on a busy road, but it is surrounded by a small cement wall. We're thrilled to be able to have a small yard which seems to be pretty rare in St. Barths. Josh can't wait to put up a basketball hoop, since our driveway is also cement.
We're so excited to see God's hand working for us. He provided this place for us! How neat!
Pray for us as we need to decide exactly when to leave (we begin paying rent April 1st). We also are praying for the Lord to provide for a few of our needs before we leave.
Don't ya just love our place!
