The Great Hunt of 2009

So, we searched for 1 week and 2 days to find our new apartment in NYC. It was a much more daunting task than we realized that had it’s high highs and low lows. We had heard it was a difficult process, and, we believed people. Then we went through it. It really dealt with a lot of our trust issues with God. Seriously… it was a pretty difficult and stressful process. BUT…

We got the call from our realtor yesterday that we were approved for our first choice of apartments. THANK YOU JESUS! God was faithful, even when we struggled to trust Him. Wow…

It’s a bit smaller than our place in Atlanta and about 2 times the rent. That’s not bad considering when we first looked in December/January of last year we were expecting 3 or 4 times our Atlanta rent and a much smaller place than we got.

I put together a silly little video of our apartment to the tune of U2’s ‘New York’ which you can view below. Welcome to New York!
