Snow and Birthdays

We've been here one month this week. We can only think of three days where there hasn't been snow on the ground. I (Autumn) love snow. Casey hates snow. Casey usually doesn't hate anything and even tells me not to use the word hate, but he hates snow. I will admit that the snow and cold have been a little more than what I would normally love this year. We had another "big" snow last Monday and I got the snow-hater Casey to go outside and build a snowman with me. He must love me more than he hates snow. :)

We enjoyed the snow but I think we can safely say we are both ready for spring and some warmer weather. 

Last week was also a milestone for Casey. He turned 30! I bake him a carrot cake every year for the special day. So thankful for him!

We've Moved!

A week ago today we left Raleigh and started heading toward Louisville, KY.  We arrived this past Monday afternoon and have gotten settled in nicely.  Casey started his classes on Thursday and we're in the process of looking for jobs and a church.

My (Autumn) parents made the trip with us to pull the trailer and get us packed and unpacked.  We took them to see a little of downtown and the Louisville Slugger Museum on Tuesday before they headed home.  We really appreciated their help and couldn't have done it without them!

Louisville Slugger Museum 2014

I traveled to Louisville for an FBLA trip my senior year of high school.  My favorite things were the Louisville Slugger Museum and Churchill Downs. I recently ran across the pictures I took and thought about the fact that 13 years ago I had no idea we would be moving to Louisville, KY.  However, God knew every step I would take and every path He would lead me on and I take great comfort in knowing that He is in control.

Recreation of above in 2014....also learned that random bronze bench man was a former mayor of Louisville, Charles P. Farnsley

Oh, it has snowed at least three of the days that we've been here.  Here's a view out our back door on Friday....

Looking forward to what these next few years in KY will bring and how God guides our way.
