The Big Move

Caleb has been working in Birmingham for a few months now, but he had been commuting back and forth to Tuscaloosa.  We helped move him in to his new apartment recently, and let me tell you, it was quite a change.  No offense to him or Drew, but we moved him out of a very typical college guys ratty apartment to a really swanky one in a super nice area.  Wow!  He really has grown up!  I will admit to shedding a few tears as we drove away, as the realization that the nest really is empty hit me!

Over the past nine years, we have moved Lindsey and Caleb something like 13 times combined!  Good grief!  The worse would have to be moving Lindsey in and out of a 3rd floor apartment.  This one was probably 2nd on the list.  Even though it is technically on the first floor, you have to climb several steps to get to his apartment.



A few months ago, Caleb told his dad that he would like for him to make him a new bed.  So, of course that is just what happened.  Caleb wanted something rustic, and it turned out beautiful.  I of course have also requested one for us-with just a few changes!



Things really progressed when Lindsey arrived with the real help!



I know a lot of places in Birmingham have big, nice pools, but how many have a stocked bass pond with ducks and geese?  He is still a country boy!  By the time we left, he was pretty much settled in with new furniture and new accessories, and ready to start a brand new adventure!



We are oh so proud of you!  But remember, the light is always on here!  Love you bunches and bunches!
