Intro

We have finally arrived at our new home in South Carolina! Jon, Hazel and I are excited to start our new adventure! I am new to the blogging world so please be patient with my lack of knowledge on how this is done. So! Let's start with a little intro on how we got to this point and found ourselves here in the dirty south.



JON
Jon has been working his little tail off for the last three years in preparation for pharmacy school. He applied to Baltimore, Kentucky, Chicaco and the U. While he was accepted to Baltimore and was offered interviews with Kentucky and Chicago, we both felt that Charleston was the best place for us to be. It helped that Jon received one of the top 10 out of state applicant Scholarships due to his incredible performance on the PCAT. He rocks.  I came with him in February to visit, and was sold the second I stepped off the plane in February, when I was greeted with 70 degree weather. He will be starting school at MUSC starting in August and couldn't be more excited!

                     

ME
After finding out that we were going to be moving, I started looking for a job to put my mind at ease. I decided to put my hard earned Bachelors degree in Human Development and Family studies to good use and continue working in Insurance. I have been working at American Family Insurance for nearly 4 years now, and figured that I would like to stay in the field so I started looking. I was able to contact a State Farm agent who eventually hired me over the phone which was a HUGE blessing. Because of my job we had to move out a little earlier than planned. I started my job on Monday and so far have been loving it!  We are truly blessed that so many things were able to fall into place for us regarding this move and we cannot deny looking back that it is going to be the best thing for us at this point in our lives. 

                                      


HAZEL
Hazel's journey getting here was probably the most difficult or at least she would tell you this. I flew with my mom and Hazel. In order for this to happen we had to give her a sedative which made her pretty loopy for the two flights over. She rode in the cabin and by the end of the first flight had become fast friends with the three children sitting in front of us. After landing, we proceeded to sneak her into a hotel for the night which is where the sedative eventually wore off... This left Hazel a little cranky to say the least, and I was sure that we were going to be thrown out of the hotel for the cantankerous meowing that ensued the next morning. Now that we are settled she is loving her new home and has become quite the southern belle.  

I am nearly undone unpacking and will blog pics of our new little place when that is eventually complete, including our adventure on the way here. I will leave you with a sneak peak of our place and what is yet to come! This is for you Carlvant.
