Home sweet home...

Hello again!! Life for this Mrs has been crazy the last month! Tyler & I finally moved to Davenport the first week of February. Everything went so great with the move too! Our family was a huge help & made the transition so smooth & enjoyable... Not to mention Tyler's mom got this cute little cake for us from the same bakery we got our wedding cake, yum!

 

Shortly after we moved in, Mr & Mrs celebrated our 1 year!! We enjoyed a little trip and a night of re-living the memories of our wedding all over again with a video that I got made from our wedding, etc.. Such a great night! We then had a little housewarming party for our families followed by finding the church that we are going to start going to (so excited) followed by Tyler and I starting school at Palmer on March 6th!! So we've been busy busy! All the in-between moments have been wonderful as well. I have loved every minute of decorating our new place, exploring the area, long walks with Tyler and trying out new meals in the kitchen. 

It is so funny how as humans we can be so afraid of change. We are creatures of comfort. We want to feel safe & overall just be comfortable. And part of me is soo like this. Buut the other part of me longs for taking risks and living a life of stepping out in faith. Coincidentally my middle name is faith, love how God worked that all together! The thing is when you are taking risks or taking a step of faith.. I feel like that's when you truly feel alive. It stirs up passion in you and reminds you that your going to be okay if things change. Change can be a good thing, even when it seems scary. When you are where God wants you to be, everything else will just fall into place & he eagerly pours out his blessings. I never would have pictured Tyler & I's first year of marriage with as many adventures as it did, but I would not take away a single one of them. Making the decision to move to Davenport and start school was I think one of the best decisions Tyler & I could have possibly made. When I got here I kept expecting to want to grieve.. or that my emotions would catch up to me and I would be like... "what in the world are we doing here!" Instead though I have felt such a peace about where we are at and have felt God's blessings all around Tyler & I's situation. We absolutely love our new home.. the location, the feel of the area, the people. We feel like we have found a wonderful church where people passionately love Jesus and where we can do life together with these people. School so far this week has been a great experience.. the teachers there seem to genuinely want us to succeed, they are passionate about what they talk about and are very down to earth. I swore I would never go back to school, but here I am excited about it and eager to want to learn. I think it's because this time I have a goal. I know what I want to accomplish at the end of it all. The idea of being able to open a chiropractic office with my husband is a gift. The fact that I can kiss him in the hallway at school & hold his hand.. its a gift. And I am so looking forward to all the wonderful, crazy adventures and blessings God has in store for Mr & Mrs in this new chapter of life. God is so good!!
