Where to start....

My husband C & I just moved from Indiana to northwest Washington State. It was hard leaving behind my family and friends! My hope for this blog is to keep my family & friends up to date with our lives!

The last month has been a whirlwind! We left Indiana on 9/28/08 and started our four day, 2,700 mile journey across the country. It was an amazing experience seeing parts of the country I have never seen before! Thankfully my wonderful in-laws made this move possible! They also allowed us to live with them until we got on our feet (which happened faster than we anticipated)! We arrived on a Wednesday and by the time Friday rolled around, both my husband and I had jobs! Being a nurse, I really wasn't concerned about finding a job out here. My husband got a job working with his dad. We also found an apartment the next week or so. It has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and about 1,100 square feet. We LOVE it! We moved in about 1 1/2 weeks ago. Unfortunately with the way the economy is, my husband was laid off last week (along with many other people)! He has been working really hard to find another job. He has an interview today with Best Buy & then we are going to a job fair this afternoon.

Tonight we are going to his parents house to eat dinner. I'm excited because we haven't seen them since we moved into our apartment. They are absolutely wonderful, and if not for them I don't know if I could make it out here! It has been hard without my mother though! =( We talk at least a few times a week, and I am so thankful we are able to do that. She is coming to visit over New Years and I CAN'T WAIT!!! I miss my momma!

So, what's next for us you may ask? I don't want to give too much away, but we have been discussing the idea of adding to the family. =D We will wait & see what happens!!
