Headin' Up and Movin' Out........

Well everyone, we've been in Jackson a lot lately. Last Friday, we drove to Yazoo City so Dane could accept his new job! YAY! Then we spent the rest of the very long day searching for a place to live. 

We came home late that night, and spent the rest of the weekend in Starkville. It was such a great weekend, just relaxing and enjoying ourselves and our friends. It made the reality of leaving soon very bittersweet. 

Monday night, we headed back to Jackson. We searched relentlessly for a place! We found a few in Yazoo, but we just weren't 100% sold on any of them.

Anyways, to get to the bottom of it, we finally found a place in a tiny, tiny town in Benton, MS. It's about 15 minutes from Dane's work, and about 30 minutes from Madison. It's a decent halfway point, so we're happy about that! Benton is super small (only has a post office and a gas station), but we're just glad to have somewhere to lay our heads. 

Anyways, thus begins our packing up and good-byes. I won't say much about it now, because I'm already missing our friends and my trailer and our church and so much more. :(

Please keep us in your prayers as we transition from college town USA to really really small town and we start getting plugged in. During our search in Yazoo, God blessed us by already putting people in our lives to help us in Yazoo. We've met a lot of people, even a bunch that are members at a church we're looking to visit, and we're excited about our next step!

A more entertaining post to come....... :)

I'll leave you with a link to my new favorite website/person. Her blog posts are so witty and her recipes are awesome! www.thepioneerwoman.com.  The pioneer woman is great and I want to be like her!

Love you all.
