The past 7 months have been a new chapter in our family's lives. In June we moved to Nolan's hometown in Mississippi. This is something Nolan has periodically brought up in our marriage, but I never felt at peace about it at the time. We finally felt like now was the time and took the first scary step in trusting the Lord in the decision to leave Alabama. No it was not easy to leave, but we felt that is was essential to be closer and more involved in Peyton's life. Will we be here forever? Seriously doubt it, but for the moment we are learning to walk by faith in this new journey.
With that being said we had several "firsts" for our family in the process of relocating.
1. We moved into Nolan's Grandmother's home. This is great because we have more room for our family.
2. We got our first LIVE family Christmas tree. Ha, we have had artificial ones in the past because it is easy for me to deal with.
Here is Nolan and the boys getting the tree up.
3. We both started new jobs. Nolan is employed at Safelite Auto Glass and I am still teaching but I currently teach Pre-K and tutor fourth and fifth grade math at Baxterville. Jude is also in my class so I get to see him more throughout the day.

A Long TIme Coming
So since Jude was born, I have tried to always write down cute or funny things he says or does in a notebook so I could go back and enjoy reading them. I also did this because I sometimes have"mom brain" and forget things. I really want to be able to go back and read these type things when I am older (blame it on the movie The Notebook ha)!
I have gotten worse about not writing things down lately so I thought I would start a blog that I can turn into a book and I will have to read. I have had my account set up for a while but would keep getting dumbfounded with coming up with a title and url. So I just decided, after months, just to go with whatever I could think of just so I could get started finally! I know I will go back and change alot, but this will work for now. SO, here we go :)!
