Go Big or Go Home

Well it seems here in the Uebel household we can't just make one life change at a time. It has to come alongside at least one other. Take for example when we got married. Not only did we say "I do" but we both moved to a new city, started new jobs, and oh yea graduate from college (well at least me).

Well this time around it's no different. *Begin trumpet prelude*-We're having a baby and we just bought our first house! Yep you read that right. I'm about 13 1/2 weeks pregnant and my due date is actually Christmas Day! We're so excited for our family of 2 to expand to 3. It's still a little crazy to think about and we have absolutely no idea what being a parent is going to be like but we're pumped!

As for the new house I promise there will be pictures to come in the very near future. It's been a crazy week leading up to and after the move. We closed on the house last Wednesday afternoon and moved ALL our stuff in that night (crazy yes I know). And can I add here that I had no idea closing would be as formal as it was? I mean I had no clue that EVERYONE who buys a house in the US has to sit at a massive table across from a lawyer and sign a thousand and one papers in an hour! I leaned over to our realtor at one point and said "I feel like I'm starring in some sort of legal drama with this giant table." Welcome to adulthood I guess.

Anways, Thursday morning the entire BCM staff (and Adrienne) came over and helped us paint 3 rooms which was such a blessing! That afternoon/evening we organized and unpacked. We woke up Friday and Saturday morning for a full couple of days at BCM Alumni Work Weekend. It was great to see old friends and give the building a good 'ole fixing up.

Well I think that's all for now. As I said earlier I'll post pictures soon! Hope you're enjoying the summer wherever you are!
