Update!

I’m sorry for the inadvertent blog hiatus. As you can imagine, things got really hectic really fast. Here’s the jist of what’s going on.

We are moving to the **** area and we’re going to buy a house! We will move out of our apartment this weekend (we’re putting all of our stuff in storage), stay with some friends in Waco for a few days next week while Kolby finishes school, and then we’ll be staying with my parents until we find a house. We’ve been on the house hunt for a few weeks, but things will be much easier once we are back in the area and can be more available to look at houses in person. We’ve found a neighborhood that we really like, but we’re keeping our options open at this point.

I start work on July 15th and Kolby will head to Santa Fe, NM for the summer residency for his grad program on July 23rd. We’re hoping to find a house and get moved in before those events, but it’s not too big of a deal if that doesn’t happen. In the fall, Kolby’s main job will be to enjoy his graduate program, but he is also looking into a part-time job teaching SAT or GRE prep classes at places like The Princeton Review or Kaplan. If that doesn’t work out, he can always find work as a substitute teacher a few days a week.

Below are a couple of posts about other things that have been going on.

I can't foresee anything happening in our lives that will warrant a blog post until we find a house. After Kolby finishes school and we move in with my parents, we'll be living the life of bums for awhile. Our days will likely include little more than looking at houses, watching/attending Rangers' games, and finding ways to earn our keep at my parents' house. So, I'll let you know when we find the perfect little first house for ourselves!
