I guess its that time again...

....to start writing about whats going on with us, since our lives have lost their usual routine right now. We have once again said good-bye to friends in Seattle, and embarked on a new type of adventure.

Between our last blog post in October, and until a week ago, our lives remained relatively unchanged. We lived in Seattle (in the same apt pictured below), and worked in the jobs we had gotten back in March of 2008. We were enjoying our time in Seattle; Brent got a ton of teaching experience, and I enjoyed setting up a house and managing all things domestic. However, the longer we stayed in Seattle, the more we found ourselves desiring a life with less bustle and more time.

Long story short, we found a property in Jackson County, Oregon that we are really excited about. It will allow us to have a bit of land to garden and have some chickens and goats. The house needs a ton of work, but we are really looking forward to setting down some roots in Brent's hometown, close to family.

Right now we are still waiting to close on the house, crossing our fingers that it will all go as planned. Once again, Brent's parents have let us stay with them during our transition.

To be continued....
