Finally An Update!

I'm sorry that it has been so long since I last updated. I know that those of you still checking for updates despite my lack of them are still curious to know what is going on with the plans for the new house.

We are waiting for the go to turn over our soil to begin the process to start building. We are also waiting for the approval to build a second story house from the city and neighbors, which I believe will be happening this week. So far we have had very little complaints about the second story so it should be approved without any trouble at all. Right now we're trying to get the price per square foot of the house down from the estimated quote so that building the new house is more of a reality since the original quote given was too high for us. We have been so blessed by God because he has provided us with a family who is doing their best to help us rebuild our house for a price we can afford.

If you would like to see what our new house is going to look like you can go to jamesglover.com and look for it in the plan room.

Meanwhile Ryan and I have settled in to the rental house. I was allowed to paint my room so it now looks more like me. Perhaps I'll take photos of it and post them on here in case anyone is curious. I'm so blessed to have been living in an apartment on campus during the fires because it has allowed me to make this room in such a strange and unfamiliar house much more comfortable.

I hope all of you are well! God has blessed us all so much, and I hope that each and every one of you feel how much God has blessed you as well! He carries us through all our struggles, and I have no doubt that he will take care of us all because he has provided for my family in our time of need more than I could have ever thought.

God bless you all!

In Him,
Alyssa Gino
