In just 34 days, we will begin our journey across the country to our new home in Wenatchee! After searching for what seemed like an eternity for a place to rent for the next 12 months, we finally found the perfect place and will be signing our agreement this week. I can’t even begin to describe what a relief it is to know we will have a place to land when we take this crazy jump. We will have enough space for a guest room, as well as a big fenced in backyard for the dogs. This was one thing I was really hoping to find in a rental because our sweet pups deserve the space to run around and play.

The last several months have been chaotic to say the least. We have been working hard on renovating our kitchen to prepare to sell our house. We have also been busy starting to pack things up and move them to the storage unit to make our lives a little bit easier once it’s time to actually load up the truck to move. We will be sad to leave the home where our relationship started, but we are both so excited for this new journey together.

On top of that, our boy Rex has been having seizures and last week was officially diagnosed with idiopathic epilepsy, and started on meds. He seems to be doing well with them, but we really won’t know how well they’re working until he goes a long period of time without having one. January 18th was his last, and we’re crossing our fingers that the meds will work and we will have a nice long seizure free stretch!

We are also trying our best to make time to see and spend time with friends and family we will be leaving behind. This is by far going to be the hardest part about moving across the country, but we are so grateful for the support of everyone we have in our lives. You all mean so much to us, and keep in mind we will have a guest room in our new place so feel free to come visit us anytime! We truly mean that.

I will continue to post updates throughout the process of our move. The next two months are going to be absolutely crazy, but once we are in Washington and settled, I know all of the chaos will have been well worth it.

Wanted to add a photo of our new backyard! Feeling so lucky that this is going to be our view for the next year. Looking forward to cookouts, and many glasses of wine out here!
