I want to say how much I have appreciated all your prayers and good wishes for us this past year.
As many of you know Terry lost his position as Fire Chief at a Fire Department he loved. It's been a hard and sad time in our lives.
It has been so helpful to him to have connections with the men and women of his last fire department. They relay to Terry how much they miss his leadership, how he cared about their welfare and the welfare of the community and how much he is missed. That makes him feel good that his 7 years of service to this department as their fire chief made a difference and was well appreciated. It is nice to know that the community and men and women that serve on that department knew what an asset he was there.
The search for a new job has been a challenge over these past months. Terry is well respected and very qualified in his field. Terry found himself among 200 + applicants with each job potential and would always get down to the final two or three with each job. With that said there has been a lot of competition, politics and just plain crazy!!!! Wooo some times it was like Twilight Zone stuff!!!!
So as a lot of you know we sold our home at Thanksgiving and are getting ready to close the end of this month. Since Terry does not have a new job yet we are going to our Plan B.
God has been good to us and has blessed us in many ways after all that has happened. Sometimes you have to have bad things happen in life to see what is really important and how blessed you are and how a bad thing in life can turn into a much better opportunity.
So I thank you for your never ending prayers, friendship and encouragement for us as we have traveled through this last year's journey.
I will be closing Junk Chic Cottage blog for a short time as I pack up this cottage and prepare for our move.
I thought I would post some pictures of Junk Chic Cottage over these past 3 years of my blogging adventure with all of you.
We have loved our Cottage and have many wonderful memories in this beautiful home. I know I will love another home but until then I will enjoy my last days here at Junk Chic Cottage as we pack up our lives for our next adventure.
So this is not farewell but a short good bye as we start into our new adventure. Hello 2016!!!

Whew!!!! that was a long stroll down memory lane! As you can see by these pictures Junk Chic Cottage evolved and was well loved over the 3 years of my blogging with all of you from this home.
New adventures await and new decor crazy to come. So a short good bye for now and I will be popping back up in your emails soon with a post on our new cottage.
I will miss all of you and will visit your blogs on my down time from packing and getting ready to move on to our new journey in life. Thank you for your support and continued good wishes for us.
Good Friends Never Say Good Bye, They Simply Say "See You Soon"!
Love you all,
Kris
