I love you house!

We moved into our house! Hooray! We're so happy and excited and overwhelmed. It's amazing. Here are a bunch more pics...

Our cars look so cute in the garage.

Life at the Super 8

K, I meant to post this on Thursday, but things got crazy fast...
So we live at the Super 8. We're hoping to close on the house tomorrow (Friday) at the very earliest. Until then, we're bored. Well, Lillie and I are super bored; Ben went back to work today. Lucky.



So, while Ben had his 8 days of uneventful leave to "find a house and get settled", we had time to explore the Fayetteville area.

Market Square.



And more...




It's so bizarre to realize that most of these old buildings are like 200-250 years old. And they're so beautiful. It's such a great and interesting area!

On to North Carolina!

We're finally in North Carolina! I can't even believe it! Friday we drove the 3 1/2 hours from Alabama to Uncle Ricky's in Mississippi. We spent the night, got the Lillie-dog, and drove the remaining 11 hours in two cars to Fayetteville, North Carolina on Saturday. The drive actually went really well... the Lillie-dog slept pretty much the whole way and there were no car problems.


So now we're camped out in the Super 8 right outside GIANT Ft Bragg. We're looking at houses and actually considering buying, since the housing market here is so affordable. Yesterday we saw the cutest house about 20 minutes from base for $115k. Unbelievable! We'll see how that goes... but we've got to get outta this hotel asap! We've been living in hotels since leaving Utah in June. Yikes!

Here are some pics from our time in Alabama. Miss you guys!
