Montgomery’s Moving to Knoxville

May 31, 2022 | Tennessee

Hello friends! Long time no post, I know. Working full time plus doing my influencer work plus packing has been a lot. Hopefully once we get settled I can get back in the swing of things and be more consistent on the blog. I wanted to give a quick run down because while I did mention on IG that we are moving, I know the dumb algorithm only shows it to a few people, so I have gotten a lot of surprised “YOU ARE MOVING?!?! Dm’s lately so I wanted to give an update here. In case you missed the post and video I recorded with it, you can check it out here.

Time is flying, and we are at less than TWO WEEKS until we leave Mississippi. There is so much that goes into moving states like getting a truck, hiring a crew, packing, researching, figuring out new utilities, bills, changing addresses, forwarding mail, etc. that I have felt a little overwhelmed the past couple of months. Thankfully we now have a moving truck and are just working on a crew, getting a firm closing date, and packing. Oh, the packing. Thankfully it’s a 3 day weekend (scheduling this post to go live later) and we have been able to get a LOT done.

SO our plan is to have the trailer delivered mid next week start loading, and leave the next Saturday and head to my parents while we wait for the trailer and for the house to close. Then EK starts camp the following week. She and Dolly will hang with my parents while we unload because, hello, that would be a nightmare. We are hoping to get our furniture that Thursday (I will take off work Thursday and Friday) so that will the weekend I will have 4 days to get my life together.

We can’t wait to make new friends, join a new church, visit new restaurants and be less than an hour from Pigeon Forge. We are going to have lots of adventures and I hope you will stick around and follow along! I also am asking that you would pray for us in this transition. It’s a high stress time with a lot of moving parts, and I would covet your prayers!

Happy to answer any questions you may have. I will be posting all the things over on IG stories as we go along! Tennessee, here we come!

Island vibes in the Smokies 🌺☀️ Stayed st Island vibes in the Smokies 🌺☀️ 

Stayed steps away from rides, shops, and sweets—then escaped to rooftop views and poolside hangs when we needed to reset. 

Margaritaville Island Hotel = Tennessee’s version of chill.

(#Ad) Back-to-school season is no joke — between (#Ad) Back-to-school season is no joke — between practices, homework, and trying to figure out dinner every night, I’ll take any shortcut I can get. 🙌🏼 

One of my favorite time (and money) savers? Grabbing a gift card at Kroger for one of our favorite spots (Zaxby’s for us!) and clipping the digital coupon for 4X fuel points. 

That means dinner is DONE and I’m saving at the pump. Total win-win! 👏🏼 These gift cards are also perfect for teacher gifts, last-minute summer outings, or a first-day celebration meal. Smart moms know — gift cards give back 💡 

🛒 Head to your local @krogerco to snag yours and clip your 4X fuel points coupon before 8/12! 👉

BACKSTORY TIME! 🚘 I drove the same Toyota 4Ru BACKSTORY TIME! 🚘 

I drove the same Toyota 4Runner for 14 1/2 years. Last October, we got a good deal on a Highlander platinum with 10,000 miles on it from @foxtoyota. 

The only problem is, I wanted the Grand Highlander platinum, because it has way more cargo room, legroom, and some other features that the regular Highlander doesn’t have. I thought that’s what we were getting, but it wasn’t available and we ended up with the regular Highlander, which don’t get me wrong, I was very grateful for after driving the same car for so long.

However, as the months went on, the differences were very noticeable, especially with how much we travel and the lack of space. Without me knowing, Bobby had been doing research and working with the wonderful folks at Fox, and was able to find us a brand new Grand Highlander platinum. 

He had hoped it would arrive for my birthday, but it was a couple weeks late, which was totally worth it. He’s usually really bad at surprising me (my 40th birthday party a couple weeks ago was supposed to be a surprise, but I found out.) so I was truly in shock and speechless when I came home and this new car, which we named Ruby, was in the garage!

@bobbymontg may not be the most romantic guy, but he shows his love in ways that he knows I appreciate. Best birthday gift ever! 🩷

While grabbing a few things at Walgreens, I picked up a Kohl’s gift card and turned it into the cutest teacher gift — a mason jar wrapped in ribbon, full of pencils with a tag that says “This year is going to be on point.” 🎯 

It’s simple, thoughtful, and super practical — because who doesn’t love a gift they can actually use? 

Walgreens makes it so easy to grab @incommpayments gift cards for everyone on your back-to-school list — from teachers to even yourself (because let’s be real, moms need a win too 😉).
