Tennessee Girl

Reluctantly I must announce that we are officially moved in, I just unpacked our last box yesterday. I guess I have been in denial this whole time, thoughts like, since we weren't totally unpacked we weren't really here to stay. No longer can I live in this denial so for now I will say that in reality I am a Tennessee Girl but in my heart I will ALWAYS be an Idaho Girl.
If you haven't guessed this hasn't been the easiest transition for me. First, I have never lived away from home. Second, we moved from a house to an apartment. Third, I like the cold and the snow and Knoxville is humid and very hot. Fourth, Knoxville is a lot more diversified than Idaho Falls, which is not a bad thing it has just taken some adjustment to be in the minority instead of in the majority. Last, I am pregnant, emotional, and I don't like change!!!

Although, there is a small glimmer of hope for a happy ending. Here are some highlights from our stay in Knoxville so far... A great weekend with my siblings Rob and Megan along with their families. A fun trip to the Knoxville Zoo. Eating dinner and playing games at a friend's house. Going on drives and exploring the city. Big thunderstorms; a nice break from the melting heat. Shopping for baby things. Looking forward to having my Mom come for Thanksgiving!

Yes, it is taking some adjustment to living here in Tennessee but I'll be okay! Andy is loving school and that makes me happy because he is doing something that he loves. I don't have any pictures to post yet but I will get some and post them soon. Hope everybody is doing well.

P.S. For those of you who don't know we are having a BOY!!!
