We are here! We arrived on Tuesday and have been busy unpacking, arranging, rearranging, etc. The move went really well and Jordan did great on the long car rides. Luke's parents are AMAZING! They flew up to help us load the truck and drive down to Chicago and then Luke's mom continued down to North Carolina with us driving the big Uhaul while we drove our other two cars. She even stayed to help us unload, hang shelves and pictures, play with Jordan, and make sure we were all settled in. I have THE BEST mother in law hands down! Thank you Randy and Lucy for all your help!!!
Now we are adjusting to our new home and new surroundings. I have had a few homesick moments for Minnesota...like the other morning when I found two centipedes in our bathroom and one of them was HUGE. Also, shopping at the grocery store and Costco and not finding our staple items like giant Tillamook cheese blocks or Parker's Farm peanut butter. BUT we are LOVING the weather (even if it is rainy), enjoying our new apartment (I'll post pictures soon!), and excited to make friends and explore our new surroundings.
Off to unpack more boxes...

Yea for North Carolina! You're going to love it. The people are so sweet. Now we just need to round everyone up for an Ocean Isle reunion!
Ok I have never met your in-laws but from you blog I would say they are an absolute dream come true! You are so lucky! I am jealous for sure! Glad things went so smoothly for you guys.
I'm glad everything went so well! I'm jealous. Oh--the huge centepedes are nothing compared with the 2 inch long cockroaches that come out in the summer. Bugs in NC are gross. Sorry.
I'm excited to follow your adventures through your blog!!!
So glad it all went as smoothly as it did. I think I am going to come with Del when he heads down to visit! I hope you fall even more in love with your new surroundings.
