UPDATE :: we are alive

I have put off blogging long enough...I was just feeling overwhelmed with all the posts I've wanted to do with all the stuff we've done since my last post. But I decided that doing a brief update and then starting fresh from here would be best.
So here's what's happening with the Evans' now...

WHO: Cory Lindsay and Owen

WHAT: Just Living the Dream as an eternal family of 3

WHERE: Battle Creek, MI

WHEN: Since the middle of November

WHY: Cory got a job working for the Battle Creek Bombers, a collegiate baseball league. We felt like this was the right move to make at this time for us and it will be great experience for Cory to have for grad school later on. So we plan on being here for a little while (longer than any other place we've lived our married lives) but who knows! hehe I am hoping we are here until we go to grad school, I am done moving!!! Even though I have gotten pretty used to the feeling and craziness of the whole moving process, it still hasn't gotten any easier. Its always a little rough at first...the new home, new ward, new area, and no friends...but I know it takes a while til you really start feeling comfortable and start making some good friends. This move is really a whole new experience for us because we've never moved to a place where we knew absolutely no one, and are completely on our own. I am just so grateful to not be too far from our hometown, and for modern technology that makes it so easy and convenient to communicate with family and friends. We are very happy and know we are where we should be.

Yay! I'm so glad you posted. I LOVE the big family picture at the top of your blog, you guys look so great! I'm excited for you guys and this new adventure, I'm sure it won't take long for you guys to make friends. You're amazing and that's easy to see so I imagine there will be a line of ladies outside your door just hoping to get the chance to be friends:) Good luck!

And keep the posts coming! :)
