We made it to Boston, as most of you know. James and I are staying with our wonderful friends James and Briana (groomsman and photographer for our wedding, respectively) in their little apartment in Waltham, MA. The Boston metropolitan area is urban for sure and everywhere feels like the "downtown" atmosphere where I grew up. Most of the housing consists of typical New England style homes, bay windows, brick, hardwood floors and crown molding. Little streets and sidewalks crowded with people walking and waiting for public transportation. Hole in the wall restaurants, bookstores, independent coffee shops, parks and free things to do on the weekends.
So far we're loving it.
James worked hard to find an apartment and the Lord truly blessed us with a fantastic place to live. We were prepared to live in a tiny little place here, but He gave us a home beyond what we imagined. James also applied for and received a great job this week. Its encouraging when things fall into place. Definitely feels strange that we will live here for two whole years. That we are not simply here for a visit.
But we move in on Friday and maybe it will feel more real then.
Here's to Boston. Here's to adventure.
