We're moving!

Chris finally got orders. We are moving to Marietta, GA! YAY! We'll be about 3 hours from home, and be around plenty of friends and family. We are currently looking for a house, not sure if we are going to rent or buy yet. I'm not totally convinced it's smart for us to buy since we'll only be there for about 3 years, but we'll see. I'm going to be going down there next month to look at houses with Nonie. Chris will be home in November, and we're going to drive to Atlanta on Thanksgiving Day and start looking at houses the day after. We are hoping to be able to move before Christmas, and if we buy a house, I don't know if that's even possible. We'll see. Chris is planning on taking leave starting on December 15th. He checks into his new unit the end of January. That'll give us plenty of time to get settled in, get used to having Chris home again, and visit family. I'm tentatively planing on leaving Katherine here with Jessica when I go to Atlanta in October. We are going to do a test run with her staying with Jessica overnight after her husband gets home. I haven't decided yet if I want to do it or not. We'll see. Mom is planning on coming to Atlanta and getting Katherine from us for a few days so Chris and I can do our intense house hunting with only Ethan. We'll see how it works out. So we are very excited to be moving back to Georgia, but kind of nervous about being able to afford a house in a decent neighborhood. Everyone pray for us!!!
