He's moving up to Louisville this weekend. I'll follow in a couple weeks, once the movers get us all packed up and get our stuff on the road.
I don't have a job yet. But at least we found a place to live!
Josh moves into our cute little rental house (with a fenced backyard for Abby!) this Sunday. We found it last week during our quick trip up to Kentucky we took to get familiar with the areas between Fort Knox and Louisville. It was important to find a safe "halfway" point, more or less, since I will eventually be working in Louisville, and Josh will be travelling quite a bit.
We were blessed to find a great area after visiting several bad ones, including an area recommended to us that ended up being home to several meth labs. We were getting very nervous on Day 2 of our search. However, we went from having no options to having 3 options in 24 hours. God is good!
We had a great trip and I think we will adjust well to Kentucky. It's got enough big city to keep me entertained (I already googled the malls, Targets, and Olive Gardens), and goodness knows there's gun shops and taxidermists on every corner for Josh! The snow and ice may be an issue... the first time Abby has to go "out" in the snow will definitely be entertaining. I may need a video camera.
Lots of prayer went into this move and we know this is what we're supposed to be doing. We are sad to leave our families, and our families are sad to see us go, but we all agree this is a great opportunity for Josh and I. Very excited to see what's next for us!
Love,
Josh, Kim & Abby
your house is so cute (i love the brick wall in the kitchen)! it kind of resembles the house i'll be living in in Atlanta.
ReplyDeletei think you'll really like Kentucky. i've always wanted to go to the Louisville Slugger Museum, so you'll have to let me know how that is.
You're ALIVE! I was begining to wonder if you fell off the face of the earth =) I'm super excited for you both and your home is wonderful! The brick is darling! You do know that now that you'll be so far away, Kimberly Ann, that you must keep us posted and let us know how it feels to be Kentuckians. Praying for you and your new adventure...
ReplyDeleteSteph J - We tried to go to the Slugger Museum but ran into some issues. We'll probably go on our first weekend up there though! I'll def report back to you!
ReplyDeleteSteph M - I know!! I haven't blogged in like 3 months. =( Things got so busy with my school and then this move. But I especially want to get back into a routine now so everyone can keep up with us when we move. I'm sure there will be some VERY entertaining stories once we move up there lol. Thank you for the prayers, sweet girl, and I would love to see you and Isaac before I go! xoxo
