Nashville

Last Saturday, January thirteenth, we arrived in Tennessee! Gerald took a job here in Nashville. We'll we're actually staying in a hotel in a town right outside called Hendersonville, right now. It's a really cute town with awesome shopping and food! Also, everyone has told us that the schools here are great. So we may end up getting a place here, just have to do more research and figure it all out. We were set on the idea of actually living in Nashville, but now that we see we're not far from the city, I guess it really doesn't matter. Anyways, that reason we left New York was basically because God really just didn't want us there. We were extremely stressed, and it seems like literally every day something was going wrong. We had the WORST luck! When the option of even going up north came up, we planned to not stay very long anyways, and made sure that if we wanted to turn around the next day that we could. So Gerald's bosses were very understanding about it all, and suggested we go somewhere close to home. Nashville came up as an option, and we were SO excited! It's a perfect mix of the city/country, close to home, and a great place for the kids to settle down. We've been traveling a lot this year, and want nothing more than to be in our own home. Forever. Haha! Living in hotels won't happen again. We're looking for a place now, and hopefully will be in one no later than a month. So that's really exciting!!! Our stress level and life seem much easier already (we should of known we couldn't leave the South)! ;)


Abby has already made her first visit home with family. Last Wednesday we dropped her off with my mom, and she went from there to visit and spend time with everyone else. She had a blast, and even got teary eyed when they got ready to go. She doesn't quite understand that visits will be much more often now that we're only a couple of hours away, and not a year apart. Hopefully she'll be back soon for their birthdays. Which are coming up soon!! I can't believe my little girl will be FIVE in just 11 more days, and then Cole will be ONE on the 12th! It's a lot to handle. Here come the school years!

Okay now I'm pretty much caught up, other than the next post of our first date night in one year. :)
