What? More changes?

We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

We have been anticipating this, however we did not expect it to come so early...Justin and I would like to announce that we are officially....MOVING!!! :)

It's not Clayton, it doesn't have a view of the mountains, but it is really close to both of our jobs! yay!! Since Justin has been communting an hour and a half to work every morning and leaving at 5:15am, we decided we could spend an extra month's rent and go ahead a move closer!

Last Monday we went to Augusta, Aiken, and North Augusta in search of rental houses. We found several online we would like to look at but when we saw them we immediately found that real estate agents can take pretty darn good pictures of awful houses to make them look attractive. So after searching for a while we found one we really liked-- Nothing fancy, very small, but hey, we don't need anything big...it's just the two of us!

It was once used a parsonage for the church across the street, but since the previous pastor wanted to buy his own house, our house went up for rent!

After waiting an entire week to hear back from the real estate agent, we were getting a little anxious. I had been in contact with her everyday and each day she told me, "should hear something tomorrow!" So, I was getting frustrated... until I got a text that said, "I emailed you Friday saying the owners approved of the contract, are you still interested?" It was from the Real Estate agent...

How had I missed her email, I was checking it all weekend. Turns out, all of my important emails go directly to junk... Thankfully she make telephone contact with me!

We found a 2 bedroom, one bathroom house with a big fenced in backyard for the dogs! A year ago we had no clue that so many changes would be occuring at once, we knew we were getting married, but had no clue Justin would be finding a new job, new house, new city....and although it is not where we thought we would be starting our life together, we couldn't be happier!

We plan to start moving a few things in on July 1st then take a break for the weekend to see the Ziesers!
