The Hoods are moving in with the King.

Not heaven.. quite yet.. 
WE ARE HEADED TO MEMPHIS! 
We just recently found out that we are moving to the Memphis, TN area. We could not be more excited! 

3 hours to Jackson, 2 hours to Starkville, 2 hours to Little Rock, 3 hours to Nashville, 4 hours to Birmingham and 6 to Atlanta! So close to everything! 

We are looking for help from those of you are from the Memphis area or live there now! Where should we live? Where should our unborn children (which we aren't having for a while) go to school? Where should we go to church? etc.  Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!! We are very interested in Germantown but are open to all advice! We will be going in the next few weeks for a house hunting trip. 
Please email Stephen (stephenhood27@gmail.com) or I (brianabhood@gmail.com) with any ideas!

We are looking forward to all there is to do in Memphis - Beale Street, Memphis in May, Grizzlies, Redbirds, Liberty Bowl, Graceland, BBQ, shopping and more! 

In honor of the blizzard that we have today in minneSnowta I can not wait to get south of the mason dixon line!!!!! Thank you God for patience and leading us where you would have us to go! We are following Your will and are excited for what you have in store for us! Thank you God for a wonderful Christmas gift of knowing where we will be living! :)

I live in Whoville.

Just wanted to give a snow-update of snOwatonna, minneSnowta. 


You can see how thick it is already!

I made a snow angel!

It's so thick! It looks like snow in the movies! :)

3 Snow Badgers. 

Getting ready to clean the snow off of my car.  Who would have ever expected to do that?

This was my drive to the fitness center! I couldn't see over the snow!
The left picture is Bully in MN and the right picture is Bully in MS. 
BIG DIFFERENCE.

Again, the left is Rocky's house in MN and the right is his house in MS. 

Also a badger Christmas present pic :) 


A funny story - Yesterday in Spin class, we biked to Christmas music and climbed snow banks. Really snow banks? I'm not sure what that is... So.. I googled it.  Of all the google images of snow banks, I didn't realize that I had my own pic of a snow bank. 
This particular snow bank is taller than an SUV and actually there is a building behind it. I don't know about you, but there is no way I would bike up one of those? Are they CRAZY? I'm sticking to hills. 

We are pumped about the bowl game! We hope we can go! Please keep us in your prayers are we are hoping to be moving back South soon! As soon as we know something definite I will update everyone! 

Have a great day! Merry Christmas!
