There hasn't been a lot going on with us as we are pretty calm. We probably will not have a whole lot to say until we actually get down to Florida because nothing is really happening right now.
We are still unsure as to when we will be moving, but are keeping our fingers crossed for the 2nd or 3rd week of June. It seems like a good possiblity that we can move then at this point, but anything can happen.
We have gotten to go to a few local baseball and softball games and get some relax time in, but other than that we are just in a waiting stage, which in itself can be stressful!
Other than that, all is well and we hope to have some better updates soon! I will update again as soon as I know anything about when we will be able to move.

No longer residents of Bourbonnais
Matt and I thought that we should start a blog so that we could give updates to anyone who wants them. So feel free to read along, comment, forward the link to anyone who wants it, or you may also choose not to keep up with us :) that is all up to you! Matt and I will probably both write in here, though I'm sure I will more than he will.
I'll just recap that last week and a half or so. We graduated May 3rd, on a cold and rainy day. It is nice to have that chapter of our lives finished, though we do appreciate our experience at Olivet... maybe we won't come November when we have to start paying off our student loans though!
This last Monday was our 1 year anniversary. I was a little sick, and our apartment was pretty much all packed up, but we still got to go out to eat and eat 1 year old cake!
Here is our 1 year old anniversary cake from the wedding.
Tuesday was moving day. We decided to move with ABF and used something called a "Relocube" to move with. It is a pod thing that is 6x7x8 and you fill it up with your stuff, put your own lock on it and they ship/store it for you. In our case we have a few weeks in which we will be transitioning so it will be stored in Orlando until we actually move down to Florida this summer. (right now we are staying with both mine and Matt's parents). Here is a picture of the Relocube: (It is in Nashville already and heading to Atlanta according to their website. )
Here it is from the outside
Here it is with Matt in it!
After we had gotten the couch, love seat, mattress and a bench in it.... which was only the start of our massive amount of stuff that we fit in there. Though not all of it fit.
You don't even want to know what all we fit in there!
After we got that all packed up we headed out to eat with a group of close friends, stayed the night with Mark and Amanda and yesterday (Wednesday) we headed down to visit with our parents.
We are mostly just hanging out and doing a lot of nothing while we wait to move to Florida. We have to wait until our apartment is ready. It could be in early June but it could be as late as August (yikes). We won't know a specific date until late this month.
That is about it for now, more updates to come later! Thanks for stopping by!!
