{Let's Play Catch Up Part 2}

Ok so another exciting thing that we have done since we got the States, was driving to Arizona to see my brother and his family! {Yes I said drove...} We met Joshua, Lauren, and Eva {MY NEW NEICE!!!!} at a hotel about an hour away from The Grand Canyon. We spent the night and the next day we drove to the Canyon. I have to say that Mama, Josh, and I have been to the Grand Canyon before and it was the most amazing place I have ever seen!! {And I lived in Europe for 3 years!} I have never felt so close to Heaven in my life! So needless to say I was ecstatic to be going back! I was also glad that my Granny & Papa were there to see it too, since they had never been before, which is surprising because they have been all over the United States. We finally found a parking spot and then walked to the edge of the world! {Not really but it feels like it!} It was beautiful! The view is breathtaking for sure!
We had a great week with Josh and his little family but it was time for us RuBright's to go back and start a new chapter of our lives! DRUMROLL.......We bought a house!!! I know we are grown ups now! HA! We found the perfect house for us in Fayetteville, North Carolina! It's a very cute 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home. It has a big fenced in yard and a nice screened-in porch. I love it! The home buying process took right at a month from start to finish which was great but we still ended up having to stay with some friends that moved from Italy as well. It was a HUGE blessing for them to let us stay with them for 3 weeks while we were waiting to close on our home. We love North Carolina so far! Richard likes his new unit a lot too. I haven't met many new people yet. I am still in the process of unpacking all of our boxes! So yeah a lot has happened since we moved from Italy {too much to write about unfortunately}. I need to post pictures but I can't get my computer to upload them....  :( BOOO!

Maybe next time!
