Our New HOME!!!


When Matt and I decided to move back to Georgia from Maryland September 2012, we knew renting a house for a year would be the smartest thing to do.  After all, we were moving to a new side of town that we were unfamiliar with.  March of 2013 we starting our house hunt....we looked at few resales, but quickly determined that was not the route we wanted to go......as if we weren't crazy enough with everything that was going on in our life at the time, we decided to build a house!!  We began the process the end of March and after three months of living with friends and family, we finally closed on our new HOME!!!!

2011 Brooks Recap

Warning::  LOTS of pictures!!!  


2011 was a big year!  In February my brother and sister-in-law welcomed their first baby boy, Troy!  He is handsome and we are so in love and wish we could spend more time with him. In April Matt and I were married in our home town of Atlanta!!  It was by far the best day of our lives to date.  We spent a wonderful week in Jamaica for our honeymoon and two days after we got back to Georgia we packed up the U-haul with ALL my stuff so I could finally join Matt in Maryland.  It has been difficult to say the least adapting to a new home town, but as much as I complain about being away from friends and family I know one day I will look back on this journey and be thankful for everything we experienced.  

June and August brought us back to Atlanta for my dad's birthday and Matt's sister's, Shannon, Graduation from Kennesaw State University.  

October Mark and Dee came to visit and Matt and I also took a mini vacation to Massanutten Mountain.

We returned in December for Liz and Dan's Engagement party and Christmas!!!

Honestly, I have been trying to figure out how this whole blogging thing even works. But here it is, our little family blog.....keep checking back to see what the Brooks family is up to--- 600 miles away from Georgia!
