a new home

We have our new apartment!
now to begin the major downsizing of all our belongings...

The apartment we'll be in for the first six months (atleast) of our time in the Wheaton area is the basement of a family's home  in Lombard. Like I mentioned before, it's a large-ish one room basement. The rent per month is right in our price range and we're thankful to not have to dip into our savings quite as much just to get our feet underneath us. It will definitely be a different lifestyle-- I'll be walking or biking to the train station to get to campus and Andrew will be looking for some temporary employment while we wait on a few youth ministry jobs.

Today begins the last month of our time in Grand Rapids. It will be full of weddings, game nights, VBS, packing...
