Just moved to Auburn, AL!

Hi everyone... My name is Jamie, and my family and I just moved here from the suburbs of Phoenix, Arizona. 

Just wanted to say hello and see if anyone was from Auburn, or had any good recommendations on things to do around Auburn...

Re: Just moved to Auburn, AL!

  • Hi Jamie! Welcome. I'm Lauren, one of several Laurens on the board, lol. I'm in the Birmingham area, but there are a few here that live around Auburn. :)

  • Welcome to Auburn!

    I live in Auburn as well!

     My husband and I moved here in July when he got a coaching job at the university so I haven't been here that long either. It is a great place, you'll love it!

  • Welcome!  I live in Birmingham.  I went to Auburn University and my IL's live there, but am sure the ladies who live there can offer better recs than I can. Glad to have you here.  You're going to love Auburn! 
  • welcome to the board Jamie! I'm Crystal and I'm in Auburn. I think you'll love it here! I used to live in Arizona too (benson and tucson)

    what kind of stuff are you into? There's Chewacla State Park, bowling, movies, Kiesel Park is great if you have dogs, Columbus and Montgomery are about 45 mins away, Atlanta and Birmingham are only about 2 hours away (and there is TONS to do in ATL..Coca Cola Factory, Georgia Aquarium, Stone Mountain, Six Flags....)

     

  • Welcome to the board and to the state :).  I'm Candi I live in North Alabama but there are some great ladies down there. 
  • Thanks for all the warm welcomes!  I'm looking forward to meeting some new people and hopefully making new friends.

  • Hello and welcome!!!  I, like Vanessa, came here for college, got married, and never left!

    It's a WONDERFUL place to live, and there's plenty to do.  If you're interested in swing dance, there are free lessons most Friday nights.  Here's the link.

    If you have any other questions, just ask and I'm sure somebody will be able to help you out.

  • Thanks everyone... and thanks for the comments about my blog.  I was a wedding and portrait photographer in Arizona and am now starting over here in Auburn.  It's been rough start re-building a business, but I'm driven to keep going, even if it takes a few years!  So if you know anyone in need of services send them my way! Smile

    Next stop DMV, or BMV... whatever they call that here!  Hoping I don't have to take a drivers test this week!  Tongue Tied

     

  • I didn't have time to reply with the things to do around here since I was at work but I spend a lot of time at AU athletic events (my husband is a coach here). So if you ever want to go to a baseball, softball, football or basketball game, I'm probably there!

    We also like to go out to eat and try out the different restaurants. And I love shopping in all of the little shows down near campus! 

    (PS..I added you as a friend on facebook. My real first name is Heather (my middle name is Madelyn.) :)

  • Welcome to the board and to Auburn.  We have a good size group here in town.  I LOVE living here. Small town...but 2 hours from ATL and only 4 hours from the beach! We should plan a dinner some night to aquaint you with a nice restaurant around here.  I'm not an AU fan, but I go to a LOT of sporting events (working at AU and all!).  Gymnastics season has started, and that is a lot of fun.  My name is Amy and I added you on FB.  Glad to have you here!
  • Welcome! I love your photography work. I think you'll really like Auburn.

  • welcome Jamie!!!  We'll have to do a get together soon as we seem to have a pretty great group!!!  You'll love it here.

    I went to undergrad, moved to ATL for 8 yrs, came back and got married here and hope not to ever leave.  My DH too works in AU athletics.

  • Welcome Jamie!  I'm down on the coast too, but there are a bunch of us down here, so you'll have to let us know if you take a trip!
