Twenty Five / Twenty Six Months

Hello everyone!! We're baaaack and A-ok. We are physically exhausted though. Let me give you a brief summary of our crazy days since late August.

We thought we wanted to sell the house and met with a realtor. This lead to some tears (from my end) and we decided to rent out the house instead. I was not ready to say goodbye to our first home. We put the house up for rent in August hoping to have someone move in by October. Within hours, we rented the house and tenant wanted to move in in September…WHAT?! Let’s do it!  We cleaned, painted, packed, cleaned, rented a storage, moved, cleaned some more, and moved in with my in-laws. All within a week span while still going to work. Rob started his new job on September 1 and moved in with my sister in Kingsville, TX while I stayed behind with Rob’s parents in San Antonio (3 hours away!!). We made our final move on September 20. We arrived to our apartment at three in the morning that day. Since then, we have been unpacking and settling into our new jobs, home, and town. 
All of the stress and hair-pulling days were worth it because so far, we love it!


Moving out of our house.


America's strongest man alive.


Moving out of the storage.


My strong sister-in-law pushing furniture plus yours truly.


We did it!!!


That's a wrap.

On our 25-month waiting anniversary, Rob went to work and ate dinner with my sister and her family 3 hours away from me while I went to work and ate dinner with his parents 3 hours away from him. Yup, we had a whole family-swap going on and we missed each other immensely.


On our 26-month waiting anniversary, we picked up some Ethiopian coffee from Starbucks *gasp and applause and went for a walk on the beach. On our way home stopped at a Blockbuster *gasp and applause and watched a funny movie at home.






Happy 25 and 26 months waiting!!!

We keep getting closer to meeting you
