Moving across the country

Since i'm no longer in Utah and can't keep up with everyone as much I decided to start a blog so everyone can still know what's going on! I'll try to keep everyone posted on how life all the way across the country is!

Well as of today i've officially been married for 6 days and I must say it's pretty fantastic, even though we've spent the whole time moving. The day after the wedding we packed up all my things and headed out of Utah for good. It was quite sad. Driving through Colorado however was gorgeous! We stopped the first night in Denver and drove 15 hours the next day through Kansas, Ohio, and Illinois. It was the LONGEST drive ever and everything was green and flat! I'm completely helpless out here and can't tell North to save my life. There are no mountains anywhere!!! Just millions of trees and bridges! Saturday we made it through Indiana, West Virginia and finnaly home to Pennsylvania. Crazy. After the GPS got us lost trying to find our new home we finally got all of my stuff dumped in the living room and quickly crashed for the night.

Bright and early sunday morning we packed up and headed out again for a 5 hour drive to Philadelphia (which included my first ever toll road) and started packing up all of daves things. Monday we loaded everything up and then it started raining, and boy did it rain. It was the coolest rain storm! It only lasted about 45 Min but if you ran across the street you were completely drenched. I've never seen rain drops that big in my life! We got back to Pittsburgh around 2 in the morning and quickly unloaded.

So Dave had his first day of orientation today, and it went well. Now all we have left to do is try to find a way to clean and organize this disaster of an apartment we are living in. Maybe in a few days we'll actually get a break! wish us luck!

  4. So I am new at this blogging thing and I am not sure if I am doing this right. This is a test to see if I can figure it out. I forwarded your email to all the family and they should be able to stay in touch. We are all looking forward to your trip out in August to go to the lake. Keep us informed of how your job hunt goes. Love Dad.
