Hello! We are Brent and Katie, two crazy-in-love kids embarking on a new adventure and creating a blog to document it. Our story started in 2003 at Cedarville University. I was just starting my freshman year there, and Brent was a Clemson sophomore visiting his best bud for fall break. Brent transferred to Cedarville after winter break, and we were official by spring break. Our wedding was the most gorgeous December day in 2006, best day of my life. We've been living the good life in Cincinnati for the past three and a half years. Brent is a certified public accountant at PriceWaterhouse Coopers, and I own my own album design company called KruBooks. We bought our first house (my dream home) May of 2009, and our little mascot Walter joined the family a month later. Life was happy. And then...
In February of 2010, we started considering opportunitues abroad with Brent's work. We looked at positions in the UK, New Zealand, the Bahamas, Australia, and the Cayman Islands. We had this overwhelming sense that this was a once in a lifetime kind of thing. Seize the moment, carpe diam and all that jazz. While the thought of leaving our home, family and friends gave me panic attacks, I couldn't stop thinking about this opportunity. An adventure with Brent, us going out on our own and creating these awesome memories together. I couldn't wait to escape with my husband, to do something crazy and exciting before we have kids and "settle in". I want to grow closer to Brent, to build this awesome marriage that will be a strong foundation for our future family. I want to put myself out an a limb, do something that makes me a nervous wreck and totally trust God to take care of us. I want to live without regrets and see where God takes us if we are open. So we went for it. Months of discussions, prayers and paperwork, and we're signed up with 6 months notice. The Cayman Islands it is...
October 2010 marks the beginning of this adventure, our Grand Life in Grand Cayman. Ready or not, here we come!
