Steven and I have only been married for almost three months now, but in those three months we have made some pretty big decisions. As most of you know, I have been job hunting ever since I grauduated from Freed-Hardeman last December. We have also been doing some heavy duty praying that I would find a job. Little did we know that God had the perfect job in mind. He gave me the perfect job, but not anywhere in Tennessee. As of last Saturday, Steven and I have officially become Pensacola, Florida residents! I was offered a job at Scott's Outdoor Sports in Jay, Florida doing all of their public relations, compiling their entire catalog, selling ads and doing customer service. Thanks to Ms. Sheila, our very helpful friend at Freed, I sent in my resume to her son (who is the manager of the store) just to see what would happen. They read my resume and wanted to meet with me. Steven and I drove down for a couple of days and I had my interview. They hired me on the spot! What an answered prayer!
Since Steven was about to start another semester at Freed, we had to decide what to do about his schooling. Just our luck, the North West Florida School of Biblical Studies is here in Pensacola. The school is sponsored by the Mileston Church of Christ and is a free two year program that he will complete. Not only is he going to school, but he is also the youth minister at the Leonard Street Church of Christ where he has interned for the past two summers. God has truly blessed us with this opportunity. Right now we are living in the church apartment and in October we will move into our house. I am really looking forward to that! Since being here I have already gotten my beach fix in and have already eaten at Whataburger. You cant find either of those in Tennessee!
I figured that this would be a great way for our family and friends to keep up with us since we are both about to get very busy. Istart my job on Tuesday and Steven begins his second week at school on Tuesday as well. Please leave comments and keep us updated on what is going on back home!
Love,
Kaycee

We are so excited for both of you! Your girls are missing you. We saw your mom and dad at Granny's yesterday and Masie just doesn't understand why you weren't there. She even ask about "that boy"...She may come around and decided that he is ok. Welcome to the real world of having a job! We love you!
I am so glad to hear from you. I miss you two so much, but I am thrilled about your new adventures! I hope things go well for both of you as you start a new job and a new school!
