An Apartment into a Home

Boy have we been busy the last few days! I am happy to say we have gotten most of our stuff loaded into our apartment. It is definately feeling like our place and alot more 'homey' (is that even how it's spelled??) We do have a few boxes of our odds and ends that we wll put away eventually. I love how everything has turned out. Once again my parents and Tanner were a HUGE help! It was wonderful having them here! It was such a blessing that they were able to make the trip down here to help us!
Since Spencer, Tanner and I won't be with my parents on our birthdays they took us all out for dinner to celebrate early. Friday, we went to Buffalo Wild Wings because that's where Tanner wanted to go, and he doesn't have one around school. While driving over there we saw a new side of town. Found some more cool stores! :) We discovered a store called '5 Below' which is awesome!:) Well Spencer and I thought it was :) It's like an upscale dollar store. Everything was $5 or cheaper. I did end up getting a zebra dust pan from there!
Saturday night Spencer and I got to pick and we choose Max & Ermas, which was in the mall we went to in Nofolk. After we ate the boys went to see a movie and Mom and I wondered the mall. We found some cute stores there.
Today before Tanner headed out we went to the beach. We did rent a large family bike and all rode up and down th boardwalk. Tanner left around 2 for school. The rest of us finished last minute running and organizing of our place. Mom and Dad, Spencer and I went to Moe's Southwestern Grill (like a Qdoba) for supper and then had Skinny Dip for dessert. Again it was delicious! We got home and all played a game of Phase 10 Dice...which is so fun! My parents are planning on heading out in the morning. So pray for travel safety for them! I'm back to work tomorrow and Spencer has an interview. We are praying he gets the right job and one that is close so that we are still able to keep one vehical. We appreciate all your prayers!!

  1. Spencer & Kara, We are over at your Mom's getting filled in on what's been taking place. She just signed us up officially so perhaps we can comment at home since this is being done on Kim's laptop. Maybe we will have to come over and use her laptop to comment...but she says it will work at home. We enjoy reading your comments as to the happenings and will continue to follow you daily. We had a wonderful trip to Amish country for our 60th. Praying for you both. Thanks for the anniversary greetings. We love you. Grandpa & Grandma Kirby
