Wow, so it's obviously been a very long time since our last post!  We have been busy with work, and we just haven't sat down to blog.  This needs to change, I'm-a-thinkin'!  While we have many amazing memories to share about our Japan trip, we also have a great NEW adventure in our life!  We bought a house!  Well, are in the process of buying one.  We decided it's time to find a larger place to live and start growing a little bit of roots.  We chose a house in northeast Derby, and it happens to be a house we were looking at a while ago!  We first thought we wanted to build, but after much deliberation and prayer, we decided to go with an "already-built" house.  We had looked at a model house earlier, and decided that we love the layout.  After looking at many houses, we ended up coming back to the model!  Yup, that's the one we wanted, after all!  Our closing date will be April 24th, and we will most likely take a good month to move in.  We still need to pay rent for the month of May, and it will be less stressful to move when school gets out.  So.... it's coming up!  Meanwhile, we'll try to post more, and maybe throw in a few memories or two from Japan here and there!  Have a blessed weekend! :-)
