Big things have been happening in the Barksdale household. The hubby's job is being relocated. The best part, (insert sarcasm) is we don't know where exactly we will be moving. This has all happened so quickly.
We listed our house and it was under contract after only being on the market for 9 days. Selling our house so quickly was truly a blessing. Packing up all our stuff... not so much.
I have mixed emotions about leaving Memphis. Memphis is where my husband and I made our first home together. When we moved to Memphis, we knew no one. It was adjustment having only each other to depend on. An adjustment that I believe only made us stronger in the long run. We quickly made new friends and those friends, who we love and adore became like family to us. We also had such a fun time exploring Memphis. Between the restaurants, NBA games, and traveling to Texas, Memphis became our window of opportunity to seek new things.
It's exciting knowing that we will soon have a new place to call home. Memphis has set the bar high so I'm hoping we will grow to love our next home just as much.
God has been more than good to us while living in Memphis. His constant faithfulness reassures us daily that no matter where we end up, his love for us will provide exactly what we need.
Our friends, family, and co-workers have done nothing but love on us during this challenging time. I'm extremely grateful for the relationships we have established.
I'll be sure to update everyone once we know our official moving destination.
Until then...
