Changes

Russ, Chloe Jo and I took a trip to the east coast this weekend. Russ tried out at a congregation and we have accepted a job there! This is a big change for both of us. I've lived a lot of places, but they have all been in the mid-west. It will be interesting to see how we integrate into the east coast life. The place we went didn't seem too far off from what we are used to, though. We are really excited about this adventure we are embarking on and a little sad to leave our families here. But, we must go where God sends us and I believe He is sending us to this new place. It's been a long, tough road to find a congregation to serve with and we are thankful that it is finally over! We will be moving out there at the end of July. Now to find a place to live...that sounds like a ton of fun since we will be doing it long distance!

I used to love to fly, but that has changed. Although Chloe Jo did a great job on the planes and with getting up at 3:30 a.m. on Monday and 4:30 a.m. on Saturday. She is an all night sleeper so this was different for her. Here are a couple of pictures from two of our flights.

Here is the church building where we will be worshipping com August.
This is the inside. I love that it is an older building and has that charm and character.
Here are the two *real* reasons that Russell got the job. Ha!
We really are super excited about this move! It's time we do the work we have been wanting to do for a couple of years now!
And for those of you who are wondering...there is a fertility specialist in a city about 1 1/2 hours from where we are going to live. Not ideal, but it will work for us I think!

CONGRATS!!! That is wonderful news! What state will you be moving to? And are you planning on trying for baby #2 anytime soon?? :) I am in the midst of our first cycle trying for #2...already did progesterone to have AF (waiting on that still though), will take Femara, CD14 u/s, hopefully trigger, and then this cycle she suggested we try timed intercourse. Romantic, huh! If it does not work, we will do IUI again during cycle #2. Oh the joys...
