We couldn't resist another move








Maybe we are going to become those people that move every few months just for kicks. I'm currently lining up boxes to move to our 6th apartment since May 2010 :-). I swear we're not running from the law!





A few weeks ago I posted about how we were going to start house shopping. About 1.5 weeks later, we stopped house shopping. Instead, we've weighed our options and decided that this is not the time for us to buy our first home. After some initial disappointment we quickly thanked God for His hand in our situation and decided to upgrade to a larger apartment within our current complex. While Andy, Spike, and I certainly love each other and while we certainly love the opportunity to turn our living room into the guest bedroom for when family and friends visit, a one bedroom is just a liiiiiiiiiiiiiitle bit too small for this family.




We never got around to decorating the apartment we live in now, so I'm excited to do that in the new one. Once we have everything in place I'll be sure to share a few pictures :-).




Wish us luck! I'm convinced this will be the best move yet, because we've hired movers! Yes, we're only going 0.5 miles down the road, but I'm telling you, it's going to be worth it. No more scrapped knuckles as we push furniture through doorways, or smashed feet as we drop boxes in the wrong places, or sore backs as we forget to lift with our knees, and most importantly, no raised voices shouting "it needs to go into the truck THIS way!" Hired movers = an investment in the longevity of our lovely, happy marriage!
