change of plans!

Plans... what are those? 

Quite frankly, I enjoy living an unplanned life.

But, yes... we do have some sort of a plan and I am eager to share it with all of you!  

We have decided that Lee will be going back to school to finish up a degree. He will be going online (which is so awesomely flexible by the way). He will be a full time student and will start in, I believe, May of this year. Also, we are really happy with the online programs we have found. The flexibility is great and he will be finishing quicker this way. He has been accepted to one school so far that he applied to and we are awaiting to hear from the other one. 

yay for lee!

We are still very much going to pursue our missionary plans. And we have been looking into some really great opportunities over seas and are SO excited for where this degree is going to take us. 

Now for what I consider the really exciting news!

 We are going to be MOVING (I realize all we ever do is move right now...but you know what I mean ;) 

I am so excited for this move...! 

I can't wait to cook, clean and just have our own place! Living on the road is fun ... but tiring none the less!  

And for the WHERE... We are moving to the wonderful, warm, sunny Florida. We really love it down here... so much. We have been looking online at some really sweet places... but I am not yet able to tell you exactly where yet! 

Have I mentioned how excited I am about all of this?? 

;) 

Update!

So, yesterday marked 3 months with my wonderful husband. How amazing have these 3 months been! I can't believe that the rest of my life gets to be spent with him. I love him so much. 

How blessed am I! 

2 days ago, we got a run out of Florida!! Finally! We had so many runs that day it was great... by the end of them we ended up in Albany, New York. It was a pretty neat city. BUT with extremely OVERPRICED hotels. We were planning on getting a room... but it was just ridiculous and the quality of most of them were so poor for the price! 

Anyways, it worked out fine cause we ended up getting a run out of there a few hours after we got there back down to Georgia! Were both excited for the sun again! Plus, the hotels are great for the prices. I can't believe the difference in prices compared to up north. You wouldn't think it would be like that but it is. The difference of gas between Florida and New york was like 35 cents. Crazy. 

So we are headed back down south right now... such a beautiful drive today! 

And couldn't be happier sitting right next to my husband ;) 

stuck.

Well, its been a long 9 days.

 Lee and I had originally come to Jacksonville to relax and to check out apartments because we were thinking of getting a place here (its supposed to be a good place to be located for our job). 

Our thought was that it would be nice to actually have a home base with this job rather then just living out of our van and in various hotels all of the time. So we got down here on jan 28th...and just got a hotel to chill out for a few days while we searched online for different places. It was pretty difficult at first to find exactly what we were looking for in the price range that we were looking for. Because our wants were pretty picky (well, honestly not really picky). But we wanted a furnished and a month to month lease. The hard part was finding a month to month lease. Some appt. complex's we called actually claimed that it was illegal in the state of florida to do a month to month lease. We thought this seemed weird. But obviously this would not be the case with a private owner. 

Anyways, we were having some trouble so I e-mailed my brother who really knows what he is doing when it comes to craigslist. He gave me some tips and then we found a lot more stuff. We were finding what we wanted for the price that was right for us- it was a nice change. I'm really thankful he told me to change up how I was searching cause it will really come in handy for the future. 

But even though we had way more success the second time around, we actually decided not to get one here. It was really good that we took those 3 days to just relax, cause we really got time to just think about where we were headed and to just talk about things. We did a lot of thinking.... which was very necessary! 

I will soon explain what our next season of life holds- but not yet! 

So... stuck? well, yes... We are SO stuck right  now... going on 10 days of being stuck. Basically, after our 3 days of relaxing at the hotel, we called work and told them that we were available once again- that was on the 1st. We. are. still. here. :( this is honestly unheard of... but I guess thats the way it goes. We have never waited more then 3 days. But right now, I suppose the southern area is just DEAD. So please pray that we get something soon because we really need to start working again. As of now, we have just checked into yet another hotel. It was definitely due... as we have not showered since Monday morning. yuck. But let me just say, I am SO thankful for showers and clean clothes and a nice bed. 

This job really makes me appreciate little things. 

Oh, and its really not TOO bad that were stuck in the only warm place in the country :)
