we're moving!!!!!

Woohoo!!!!! After 11 years of on-campus living for Jon, 8 years for me, 2 years for Lydda Grace and 2 months for Wade (that's a total of roughly 21 years and 2 months between us all), we are moving off!

Jon is taking a job as the Associate Director for the Office of Community and Ethical Standards here at Clemson, we are buying a house and moving.... all within the next couple months!

Please pray for the house buying process as we are in the middle of that, for Jon's transition to his new job (which he is super excited about by the way) and for all the packing and mess that awaits us in the coming months.

We are so looking forward to a home where people can just drop by without having to stop somewhere for a parking pass, where we don't battle for parking everyday, where we can hop outside quickly and easily to play, where Lydda Grace will have her own driveway to draw with chalk on, where we can easily wash our cars, plant a garden, have no more fire drills or alarms at random hours.... can you tell we're excited!

You forgot to mention not having to carry groceries for blocks while holding one or two children and having a porch or patio to sit on for fall afternoons. Even the looming yardwork can't dampen the excitment over the list of advantages. We are very proud of you guys and so happy for you, too!
