Spring Break Trip to the Outer Banks

We went for half a week in March to the beach in North Carolina. We spent some great time playing on the beach, went to the outlet mall and also visited the aquarium. Eliza spent over a half an hour petting sting rays and ended up soaking wet. She loves animals. Justin took all these with his i-phone, hence, he is in only one. He also has this app for editing photos, so he made some cool changes to some.

These two are actually on the campus of Barton College in Wilson, North Carolina where Justin will be teaching this fall.

We Are MOVING!

In case you haven't heard, since I am a negligent blogger, we are moving in July to Wilson, North Carolina. Justin will be teaching at Barton College. I had been waiting to post pictures of our house till we closed this past Friday. We are very excited. Justin grew up remodeling houses so we were looking for a house we could put some work into. The girls and I saw it in person for the first time Friday. It is a the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, with woods and a stream in the back. Our new neighbor told us that there are often deer and a neighborhood fox. We are super excited. We will be going down to work on it most weekends from now till we move in the middle of July. I will post some before and after pictures of the inside. We are sad to be leaving Richmond, where we have loved life the last four years, but excited to be staying closeby, just over 2 hrs away.
