Oh, y’all, I am so excited to finally get to share this news with you this morning! The road to get here was winding, but now I can now officially share that we are MOVING. We’ve loved our current house and neighborhood, and above all, our dear friends we’ve made here. Full stop. However, the time has come for a new adventure.
I’m not even 100% sure how all this came about, but somehow we found ourselves looking at a piece of property in a peaceful setting and with a beautiful view a couple years back and though we didn’t see the full plan at the time, we scooped it up. Fast forward two years and here we are, packing up our house and getting ready to head south.
Where to? We will be moving to the Greenville, South Carolina area! We’ll have more room for a garden, more trails to explore, and dare I say even space for some chickens?! We’ll be closer to family. We’ll be living in a house that we helped configure. Though we never had aspirations to do so, we are building and have found the process to be thrilling (if not a little overwhelming at times).
We are excited, and nervous. My nerves primarily surround the kids because it’s a big change for them and I know Hailey (more than Kaitlyn) will miss the lake. They’ve been doing surprisingly well with it, though, as our conversations primarily center around the exploring and new opportunities for fun that we are certain lies ahead. I also feel confident that we’ll stay close with their closest (and my closest) friends. After all, we are only moving about 2.5 hours south- plenty close enough for visiting!
The real fun twist of it all is that the house will hopefully be completed in October but we’ll be moving out of here in less than a month, so we will have a gap to bridge! We aren’t entirely sure what that will look like yet, but we have generous parents and a few ideas up our sleeves, so I’ll be sharing what that looks like for us as it unfolds. Maybe this helps explain why I’ve been behind on sharing our 2024-2025 curriculum picks; we usually start school right now but instead we’re packing up boxes. Ha.
It’s been a bit of a chaotic year here between living through renovations and then in a show-ready home while simultaneously picking out details for the new place. We still have some details to hammer out, but I’m so happy to finally get to share this news and take you along in the process. What do you want to know?! More details to come! 🙂
