When we first moved back to Preston in July of 2004, we wanted to build a home. We rented until our home sold in Huntington, Ut. We looked at all of the property and building lots for sale in the Preston area and couldn't decided on one, even after careful prayer. Then, Bart was called as the second counselor in the Preston 8th ward bishopric and we knew why we couldn't pick a lot. Heavenly Father had other plans for us. We bought a home in the 8th ward and settled in for the duration of his calling (approx. April of 2010.) During the last four years we have enjoyed our ward and his calling has given him tremendous growth. But, we realized we still had a dream of building our own home. August of 2008, brought both of us the feeling we should sell our house but we decided to see the calling through another year and sell the house in August of 2009. Then Bart was released in March of 2009, within a couple of weeks we made an offer on 2 acres in Fairview and started drawing up plans. We closed in April and started building in May. We are so excited! And, we feel so blessed and grateful to a loving Heavenly Father for His many blessings to us. Our goal is to have Thanksgiving dinner in our new home. Now, this one needs to sell!!!
