We've moved!!

About a month ago, we moved to St. Louis, MO! My husband accepted a job working as an assistant head wrestling coach at Missouri Baptist University. It was a quick move and verrryy stressful because the university wanted Colby there ASAP. As a result, we moved within 10 days of making our decision to accept the position. IT. WAS. CRAZY. Boxes everywhere, keeping the baby out of stuff...not to mention the quick, 3 day trip to St. Louis to house hunt! But, with some help from family, we made another move.

In St. Louis, we get to enjoy options again! We didn't have that in small-town, McAlester, Oklahoma. Now we have shopping options, restaurant options, and plenty of entertainment options.

 Plus, we get to see things like this:
The Arch


Union Station


Cardinal Games!



Now we just need to make new friends, find another church...*sigh*

I've moved about 8 times but making friends is always rough at first. Especially in our current situation. I had to resign from my teaching job so we could move here and I have not found employment yet. I'm not trying either. I love being home with Makaylee. However, having a place to go to work is a great way to meet people. I'm not sure how I'm going to go about it without a church home or a work place to go to. Oh well. If you stay any where long enough it becomes home to you. I didn't realize how attached I was to McAlester, OK or the friends I had made there until we had to leave. I'm sure the same will happen here, just like everywhere else I've lived. Especially if I remember that "Wherever you go, there you are."
