Been a long time

Sorry to anyone who had started reading this blog and then I suddenly stopped posting.  Things got crazy and a lot has changed.

First of all I would like to say that we have moved down to Georgia.  Casey accepted a position at Georgia Southern University and the holidays for us were spent packing up the house, listing it on the market and then making the trek down here.  The worst part was probably packing and trying to get a moving company at a good price.  We were able to get a good deal and loaded up the truck, our cars and the kids.  We left three days after christmas and took about four days to get down here.  All and all it was an uneventful trip and for a drive with two small kids an uneventful trip is the best kind of all.

Casey's job is very similar to the one at UND.  He will help advise the Association of Residence halls as well as take on call rotation and supervise the hall directors for some of the residence halls.  He also gets to attend professional conferences as well as student conferences.  He has settled into his job really nicely.

We have sort of started to settle into life here.  What I mean by sort of is that we are still in temporary housing while we look for a permanent place to live.  We have started looking at houses now that the sale on our house in Grand Forks is pending.  It's actually been kind of fun looking at houses trying to find the best one for our family.  Hoping by sometime in April we will be in our new one.  All of our stuff is in storage and I know all of us are starting to miss our things and just the feeling of home when we have our stuff.

I cannot complain about the weather down here as I sit inside on a a rainy day.  I know that up in Grand Forks the temps are below zero up there.  It's kind of been a perk of the move down south, their winter isn't nearly as bad as we had up there.  We are still getting use to the area and figuring out things for the girls to do but we are getting to know the place and are getting into a routine.

Now that we are somewhat settled I am gonna start this blog up again.  Tonight I will be posting about duty calls with maybe a few stories about things I have been witness to over the last 8 years that I have been with casey and he has been in Housing.
