My New Friends

I got a new cell number so I could fit in with the locals (and stop using minutes on my sister & BIL AT&T phones). Not long after, I got a text message that said "Keith it's Jeff...just wishing you well...U jammed their other night at the Grammys! Take care..." Ok. So the only Keith I know that would be jammin at the grammy's is KEITH URBAN. Kinda cool right?! Hang on it gets better...so Monday I get a text that says "Now I'm in your town! Playing on wed. We should do dinner. Hit me back if you have time. If we don't get a chance to hang then be safe and be well!" Then the next text came right over "Chad Kroeger". So, I'm thinkin...who could be playing in Nashville on Wed named Chad Kroeger...do I know a Chad Kroeger? So of course I had to GOOGLE it and who's name had appear??? None other than CHAD KROEGER from NICKELBACK!! Seriously what are the odds of that??? Could I really have Keith Urban's old number and DO I REALLY HAVE CHAD KROEGER'S PHONE NUMBER?!?! CrAzY hUh?!?! If that wasn't confirmation enough, I got another text today that started out "Mr. Urban!..." It is confirmed! I do and I do!

Man, livin in TN has been a little more exciting than I expected! (I know a little sad if that's my BIG excitement) but it makes it fun anyway! And who knows what other "friends" I might holla... :D

Hey Ya'll!

WE MADE IT!!!

Well...ok 3 weeks ago. But we are officially in SPRING HILL, TENNESSEE now and all is good. Still haven't completely unpacked - finding the time and space to put everything has posed a small challenge, but nothing we can't handle...eventually.

I think the kids have settled in really well. They each have a cousin close to their age and love having a buddy to play with everyday. Well, Mackenzie does for sure...Kohler is trying to be patient with Reagan - she LOVES all of his "boy" toys and he's not used to having someone else around that likes them as much as he does. I'm glad that he at least has another guy around (I think Randy is too).

Tennessee is beautiful! Even in the winter. There is so much character and natural beauty out here and I hear the spring and fall are absolutely gorgeous - I can't wait! Plus I have a SUPER TARGET just 5 minutes away! It has been over 2 years since I've lived so close to one. The first time I went there I got goose bumps : )

More times than not life takes us on a different path that what we had planned out ourself. And usually we can't really see very far to know what's ahead. But "what would life be like if we never had the courage to attempt anything?" ~Vincent van Gogh
