Blog post 3-Home

I’ve lived in many different homes during my life. We are not Gypsies or vagabonds. We’ve just simply had reasons to move. When I was born we lived in a small town in southern Minnesota. When I was three and a half we moved into an apartment in Wisconsin so my mother could take care of my grandparents who where both ill. The week my grandmother died our Minnesota house sold, so we bought a house in Wisconsin near our grandparents. Four years later we moved to northern Minnesota after my parents divorced. We rented a house for only four months until we found one in the community we where looking to live in. The place we rented had 20 acres so my mother started a hobby farm. We lived there four years then moved to a different farm a few miles away for two more years.

When my mom decided to change careers our next move was to a parsonage. We were there for only one year untell her next assignment took us farther north. This was a spectacular older house that had been redone (picture 1). After one year there my mom decided return to college to get her M DIV and we made the move to Pennsylvania. We moved into a duplex on the edge of campus. Shortly after we moved next door into a single house with more amenities. Both of these are graduate student housing so it was an easy switch.
