A New Hometown

It's been quite a summer! After returning to the states, we travelled around staying with family and friends in New York, Virginia, Tennessee and Mississippi. Ben started searching for a job as soon as we returned, but when nothing really promising was happening and we had lived with other people long enough, we decided to find our own place somewhere. And it turned out that we found a great sublet in Philadelphia for this month. Within a week of moving there, Ben was offered a position at CDW, an IT company, here in Philly and he accepted it! So, here we are in Philly.

Philly is a nice city and it's close to DC and New York. We've already met some lovely people from church here. Ben starts his new job on the 17th as an account manager to medium and large businesses, selling IT solutions. We are so grateful for this job. I don't know what I will do here, but I've taken some dance and yoga classes already.

I turned 27 this past weekend, and we went to NYC to celebrate my birthday and Ben's new job. It was so fun seeing everyone and going to see Mary Poppins on broadway.

As of now, we are looking for apartments and getting our stuff out of storage in Memphis (very excited to see all our stuff again.) We wish you all a great fall, what a wonderful time of year!
