Good-bye DC...Hello Biloxi!

On Tuesday morning, I said goodbye to our first home. I might have been a little more sentimental about it if I wasn't so utterly EXHAUSTED! Between Friday night & Tuesday morning, my mom and I had to pack up my classroom AND the condo. The movers had already taken about 95% of our stuff to Biloxi a few weeks ago, but we had left the bare essentials behind for me. It didn't look like a lot of stuff, but between a pregnant girl and a lady with only one good arm (that would be my mom!) we had to make a LOT of trips up and down the stairs to our 3rd floor condo. But we finally got my car jam packed full of our stuff, and we headed down south on Tuesday morning. I can't thank my mom enough for all of her help...she packed, packed, and then packed some more with me and she cleaned like a mad woman! Not only was she a big help with the physical labor, it was so nice to have her there with me. :)

We made it to GA on Tuesday night, and then I made the drive to Biloxi on Wednesday. I hadn't seen Derek in a few weeks, so I was thrilled to see him...and our new house!! :) I will post some more pictures of the house once we get more settled. But I'm already LOVING it here. I'm loving all of the space in the house, loving the neighborhood, loving the fact that we're right by the bay, loving the mere 6 hour drive home, the list goes on and on. I also love that Biloxi has one of these...
which is where Derek and I dined for dinner last night, and it was delightful! :)

Now I'm off to unpack my little heart out...I'll check back in soon with more house pictures!
