We moved

We now live in Davenport, Iowa and I LOVE it here, surprisingly. I was worried I was going to hate it. But the people are so kind, I love our location, and I love our new house!

Our new home.

 And may I add that moving across the country is not fun. We packed and loaded everything onto a truck and away it went. We were worn out and our long trip had not begun yet. It took us 3 days to load the truck and secure everything as best we could. 3 DAYS!?! Thankfully Warren was able to help us. I don't know what we would have done without him. Thanks Warren!

This is a good view of the top.

This is us, relieved the packing is done with.

Hoory for ABF! We will definitely be using them again.

Once our cleaning was done and we were checked out of our apartment, my Maddison and her lovely family allowed us to stay with them for our last night in p-town. I wish I would have gotten a picture of our fun. I got to have a slumber party with my bff AND my husband. I could not have asked for anything better for my last night. Maddison rocks my world. And I don't know what I would do without her. I miss her already! Maddison, thanks for letting us stay with you. You honestly made this A LOT easier on me.

The drive was LONG. I am happy we actually made it here. We met our nice neighbors across the street who helped us move in. They are wonderful! We got everything in and are finally settling down. I do feel funny living here. It seems so big compared to our old place. I don't feel old enough to live here.There is something about having 3 floors that makes me feel grown up.  I feel like I need to be at least 25 to live here, yet I'm only 21. I'm 99.9% sure I'm the youngest wife here.

I know lots of you want to see pictures of our new place, so here they are.

We actually have a place for our table....

Small, but new appliances!

We don't exactly know what to do with our basement. It's huge. And we don't have furniture to furnish it. I guess other Palmer students use it as a study. But since we don't have kids, Cory's study is upstairs. We are thinking about putting a treadmill down here... eventually.

Our Lanudry/Exercise/Craft room. We get our washer & dryer next week! YaY.

On a side note, yesterday we went to Sam's. We were standing in line to check out. I gave Cory a side-hug. I look up and notice the woman and her husband in front of us are grinning at me. From ear-to-ear. Why? I have no idea. It was like she had never seen anyone show affection before. Next thing I know, our checker asks us if we could wait to do that. Do what??? slightly hug? He was shocked to find out we were married. Strange right?

Cory had his first day of class yesterday. He is going to do great! I helped him get organized because he has got so much going on. It’s hectic. He is taking 9 classes and will be busy studying away for the next year until things slow down a bit. I am so proud of him. He is going to be amazing.

Love you honey!
