From East to the West...

We're moving! On February 16, Reed and his bro will be driving a UHaul across country to Phoenix, Arizona with all our belongings. The boys and I will fly out the following week, and we couldn't be more excited. Scared, nervous, excited, anxious...it's all there. I've never lived anywhere other than the south. Even Florida (which at the time I did not consider the south because...it's just not) will still be more southern to me than Arizona. At least then I if I was feeling nostalgic for "country" I could drive a few hours and be in Alabama. At least then they had sweet tea, even though it never tasted right because of the weird water.
I'm a southern girl, through and through, but I am really excited to try a new place, and I think good things will happen to us out there. We are going out with a new lease on life, a new committment to ourselves and our family, and a new game plan in general. You will still be able to keep track of us via this blog, and of course we will send out our new address and phone numbers so we can keep in touch. We will miss all of you that have had a positive impact on our lives here in Asheville, and hope that you will keep us posted on yourselves and your families.











Here is the house that we will most likely have in Avondale (just outside of Phoenix). So cute! It looks small but is just the same size as the one we're in now, about 2000 sq. feet. I don't want to clean much more than that!
And, if you're interested, here are some photos of some surrounding mountains...So pretty! Thanks Alisa for the link!

Krista, Mediacom is in Apache Junction, which is on the other side of Phoenix from where you are. And I do get out there every once in a while, so maybe I'll get to see you again!
