Packing up and moving on...

For those who haven't heard yet...we are making a big life change...in 7 days!

We are moving to Indianapolis! I got let go from my job at Franciscan and being that the job market isn't the greatest for Brian in Steubenville, we decided that he would follow one of his passions and go back into construction.

It has been a hard decision, because we love our community in Steubenville, love our house and love the life we have begun here..but we are following our hearts and following God to make the best decision for our family.

The construction company that Brian used to work for in Indy has re-hired him and I am planning on taking my photography business full-time and stay home with Jacob. This is something I have dreamed of for many years, but never new if it would be able to happen right away. God knew the desire of my heart and even thought it was a painful process, I know it is what is where God is calling us.

So...b/c the construction company wants Brian to start right away, he suggested we take them up on that and get there as soon as possible. So, we decided last Saturday we were moving and hittin' the road next Saturday. It is a whirlwind for me right now..packing, taking care of Jacob, looking for renters for our house, finishing up working, doing photoshoot, being in my best friend's wedding....are we crazy?!!?

We might be....i guess I will detox after we get settled in Indy!

Please keep us in your prayers during this transition....I have been in Steubenville for the last 7 and a half years, and I am quite sad to leave and I am really excited for all of the new possibilities to come. I am especially excited for Brian to have his community back, which has be become a great community for me, too! And we will be near his family, which will be fun. Although I know my family is really sad that we will be an EXTRA 3 hours away...

Good thing God is in control!
