The last couple of days have sure been incredibly crazy and stressful, but have been full of blessings and proof that God always provides! I mentioned in my previous post that we have reached a very critical stage of the project. On Thursday, Hannah and I packed up our things, armed with everything we thought we could even just possibly sell, and headed to Chicago.

Our thinking was that we could post everything on Craigs List and get some cash to help pay for Tuesday's session. 10 ads and 3 days later (Sunday) we had not even received ONE email or call! Talk about feeling desperate!

I spent some time in the evening on the phone, but unfortunately everyone I talked with were not in a position to be able to help, but they all did offer to pray. I think I mentioned before that if we are unable to make this date, the project may be delayed a very substantial amount of time for so many reasons. Well, I had finally conceded defeat, that perhaps that is what would happen. To come SO close to finishing and to be unable to do so would be such a difficult thing! Hannah and I prayed, and really felt confirmed that the answer would come tonight, and the decision would be made.

What followed absolutely floored us. We were approached by some close friends that understood the importance of the session, and wanted to help. So we WILL, I repeat, WE WILL be recording at Lifeword studios on Tuesday! Thank you guys so much for your support, you know who you are.

This whole record has been such an incredible learning experience for both Hannah and I, and it excites us to think of what an awesome story this will all make when we are finished with the project. The little details, like the fact we must jump start our car a majority of the time, that sometimes we truly have to do the ramen diet, etc, are all part of the adventure for us, and we are loving it!

Thank you for being a part of this adventure. I realize that this is my 100th post, and what better subject matter to talk about than the news we are rejoicing over!? Of course we still have a lot of work left to do, and need to raise a decent amount more, but at least we know the project will be completed in a timely manner, and without any sacrafices in quality. Thanks for supporting us on the ride so far, the journey ahead will be exciting indeed!
