We are planning on renting a house when we make the move to the Watts Bar area. We need some time to get to know the area before we buy our final home/farm. Sounds like a great plan right? Well, don't forget the 5 kids and the 200 pound English Mastiff that we house in our home. We can't get rid of the dog, but we are going to par it down to 4 kids since our oldest son will be staying at college. That should count for something!
Michael has spent a lot of time on the phone today with potential landlords. Just in case any of them read this blog, I wanted to make sure they realize that Missy does sleep a lot! Look, she is having a hard time staying awake in the snow.
See she even falls asleep while she is chewing. Of course she is chewing on wood that is in her designated chew pile. She would never chew on the house or anything like that!
She is staying out of trouble on the deck. Once again she is having a hard time staying awake.
This dog will cause no problems at all for a landlord because she is rarely awake. She can't do much damage sleeping! Well, at least that was the sales pitch I heard Michael relaying each and every time he talked with a perspective landlord. He must have done something right because we have 5 people willing to show us their house for us to rent. That was including us bringing all 5 kids and one English Mastiff. We haven't told them about the cows yet!
grace and peace,

How exciting!
ps Don't take Missy with you, while meeting the landlords! :-)
That's awesome to have houses lined up! I'm sure Missy won't deter anyone, especially since she has her own designated *chew pile*, LOL!!!
Wow I love love love that last picture!! I hope you all find a place that suits you!
Renting can be an interesting experience. Add a dog and it gets more interesting. Add a mastiff and I can only imagine. lol If those pictures of Missy don't melt your prospective landlords heart then you don't want them as landlords. ;) I'll add your guys to our prayers tonight for the right home and landlord.
