Goodbye Hawaii and Aloha Atlanta!

Scott, Jake, Kili, Hobbes, and I took a red-eye flight on Tuesday night to arrive here in Atlanta, our new home, early Wednesday morning. We were able to pick up the Xterra right away so that was nice. I checked into my new unit and we visited a house we are thinking of renting. Wednesday was actually pretty productive! We are staying in a very nice little Inn/B&B just outside of Emory. It is small, but they have breakfast every morning, snacks and drinks every evening, and allow the kitties to join us! It's a good deal. Thursday and Friday, we've spent running various errands, getting paperwork done for work, and just resting. Jake has been sick today, which hasn't been easy, but he's ok and we're ok, too. Things are looking good for the house we looked at on Wednesday. For those of you who know Atlanta, it is located in Virginia Highlands, steps away from Piedmont Park and lots of cute shops/restaraunts. I will be sending out address change information as soon as everything is official.

Promotion and Graduation

You are seeing some pictures from our promotion and Scott's graduation. We are at the tail end of a busy week. We packed up the house, cleaned it thoroughly, have had Grammy Barb visiting, both got promoted, Scott graduated, had two big parties, and are now relaxing on Father's Day. Phew!

I can't believe how long it's been since we blogged! The last few weeks have definitely flown by as we've traveled around the midwest to visit family, to Atlanta to look for a new home, and back to Hawaii to outprocess and move our stuff. Even as we speak, the movers are packing up our entire house. The cats and Jake are a little mystified by the whole thing. Good news is, we've found a house! It's a long story, but we decided to rent for the short time that we'll be in Atlanta. We'll be moving to the Virginia Highlands neighborhood of Atlanta. It's a good, central location to all our work places and is a cute city neighborhood with parks, trendy shops, and hopefully nice neighbors! Best news for me...it's only about a mile from the Atlanta Botanical Gardens and a Caribou Coffee! I'll write more in the next few days as we prepare to leave our beautiful home in Hawaii and start our new adventure. In the meantime, here are some pictures of our travels.
