A delimma of sorts

Okay, 2nd post in one day - but you all are our family, so thought I'd share.

As spoken of in earlier posts, Aron finally purchased some really nice recording equipment & software so he can begin to capture some of his 50+ songs. To get a small taste of his music - you can go here.

He has beautiful worship songs & feel good folk songs & more. But, now that we have the recording equipment, his laptop (which has been a bit of the lemon from the get go), won't run the software.

So, we're faced with the dilemma: Do we just wait, and do nothing for about 6-8 months until our student loan debt is gone & then purchase our ideal set-up: MacBook Pro. Or do we buy it now? Don't worry you Dave Ramsiens...we will pay cash for it either way.

We've been discussing it/praying over it for a few weeks, and we just don't know what is best. We've even been looking on Craigslist for a gently used one.

So say a prayer for us, if you think of it. Just for wisdom & discernment. We want to honor God with the resources he entrusts in our care. Thanks so much!

oh and ps...if you know someone with a used MacBook Pro they'd like to unload...send them our way. We'd gladly buy it from them.

I blinked and you've posted so much! I love the wedding pictures. I remember that when I heard you guys were doing your wedding at the hill, I wondered how that would work out. Now I'm suprised that everyone doesn't do it there! The pics were beautiful. Love the one w/ both of you under the veil.

Whenever Josh and I wanted to make any sort of purchase. We would always pray about it. We also would think...is it something we need or want? Then we considered that we were in debt..so everytime we would make a purchase it's liking your borrowing against that debt. Also whenever your in debt you owe someone money. So when you owe someone money...your basically broke. So if your broke...you only buy things you need and not want. It's hard but after one year we can say we're debt free!!! Hope that helps. : )
