Birthday Weekend!

We are still getting settled in to our new home. It's smaller than our home in Nebraska and the one we had at the beach so basic math tells you we have to be super creative when it comes to space. I'm still working on the creative end on that one...perhaps it will come to be before our six month lease is up.
Friday we went to the movies and saw "What to Expect When You Are Expecting". Saturday we went to Adrianne's house. I'm so excited that I live less than an hour from one of my best friends. We cooked out and I got to spend time with her and her two adorable boys.
Sunday was Clint's birthday. We went to Concord Mills, a big mall, and also went to see a boy movie..."Battleship". We ended our night with sushi for dinner. Clint opened his gifts of clothes, a wedding book I made on Shutterfly and a shadow box I made using a few things from memories of Nebraska. It was a great weekend. Miss you all!

We Are Back!!!!

WHOA! What a week! We started our journey from Nebraska about a week and a half ago. We made it to South Carolina Tuesday and started unloading the truck. Our trip went well and I am forever grateful for all the help!

My Dad & I....with our LAST Penske truck.


Packing is NEVER fun! Then again, unpacking hasn't proven to be my favorite past time either.

Saying bye to our Nebraska home.


Once we got the truck unloaded and I could sort through boxes enough to sleep Tuesday night and pack for the weekend, we were off to the beach. My friend Bevin got married this past weekend and her wedding was BEAUTIFUL!!!!

 It was so beyond great to see friends and be back at the beach. We had a WONDERFUL time and came back to Rock Hill Sunday night.

Clint started work Monday and LOVES it! I'm renewing my teaching certificate and hoping for a job in the fall. We aren't living out of boxes anymore....well for the most part. I've gotten to spend some time with my fabulous grandmother that lives in the same city as we do. Life really couldn't be better. It's been so hectic and for lack of better words, chaotic but it's great. We are going to start house hunting this next month I'm way excited about that!

Once again, thanks so much for all of the love and support! We feel blessed beyond measure and are excited about the future!

And the move has started

This is going to be a short post. Just wanted to let everyone know we started our journey to South Carolina today. We were able to leave Nebraska around 8:30 this morning and we settled into a hotel in Illinois around 7 tonight. St. Louis and Kansas City have been the only "hard" cities to drive though. We've been very grateful for the beautiful weather and safe trip. As always, thanks for the kind words and encouragement. We can't wait to be on the east coast again!
