You two are so awesome! I would have been so stressed out going through what you did during your move. I really enjoy all your videos and look forward to watching them. I can't imagine Tember a school teacher. She is too sweet and soft-spoken. Thank you for all your videos
Great story of your adventures when moving to Florida, especially during COVID. Thanks for sharing. Also what a blessing to have such wonderful parents! Enjoy time with them because time moves so quickly.
Move to FL from PA permanently in sept 2020, had a 20’ Uhaul and pulling a trailer with a car. Also used two PODS which went great. Moving from a house with a basement to a slab with no storage was rough, filled a 15 yard dumpster and had a couple yard sales.
We so enjoyed your story on moving here to Florida. We can identify how full your Penske truck was because ours was too!! Luckily one of our friends drove it down while we drove down here with our 2 cats, who were tranquilized. We remember looking at moving during COVID & looking @ Top of the World in Ocala. Then a year later we decided to look at TV & we fell in love with it!! Indeed you were so blessed to have Alex’s parents nearby. We are so glad you have made Florida your new home❤️😎❤️😎Thanks for sharing it all💯
Wow your story is pretty similar! It’s not fun doing the move but the destination sure is fun. Heard Top of the World is also nice! Glad you love where you live in TV and thank you for the support!
Great adventure! Florida is a great place to live. We live in The Villages. My husband and I love to travel all over Florida (we are retired). Thanks for sharing your ventures.
😊My Jersey girls daughters moved to a Tampa mailing address, Carrollwood, as the schools are highly rated. They love it there & raising families. I am moving to Bayonet Point/Hudson area by the Gulf. Many new small restaurants in the past two years there. Head north on 19 from Dunedin.
Funny, I’m actually hauling it the opposite way.. my quality of life was much much better in Missouri.. it’s insanely expensive and the jobs here don’t pay at all..good luck to you both!
Glad you moved to FL! Your videos have been so helpful for us in our journey to landing in FL. We recently bought a home in the villages and can’t wait to live their full time someday. Did you find job pay to be less in FL from your home state? We find that in our searches from what pay is in our home state of PA.
Awesome! Glad we can be a help and thanks for watching! That is awesome you bought a home in TV. It will be nice to be full time! As far as pay goes, it has been hit and miss. MO didn’t have a super high pay but cost of living was less. For us, it hasn’t been too much of a difference in rates with different jobs.
Happy you both made FL your home. We're all reaping the benefits of your move. Our three car garage is PACKED. We park in the driveway. I would TOTALLY buy a house in The Villages based on a video. Hoping that will be our next move. I'm usually the driver, but I won't drive a moving truck. Nope. I used to think Alex's parents lived nearby, because they were often featured in your dining out videos. Moving is torture! I always use movers. I'm always amazed they show up for work again the next day, LOL. Not to be weird, but Tember is so naturally beautiful.
Thanks for watching our videos! Maybe one day you will be in The Villages! Stay positive and live your dream! Parents are almost full time in FL now but not in TV. They enjoy visiting! Would never want to be a mover. Too much moving lol. Thank you for the Tember comment! That is so sweet of you to say!
I love your videos. As a snow bird in the villages it’s great to watch you check out the local restaurants. If you ever want to try a great pizza in the villages check out Sammy jo’s in mulberry plaza. It’s amazing!
@@thealtemlife Thanks guys. The hard part obviously would be finding a job in another state that would pay enough. Also I'm pretty sure I saw you guys once in the Lowe's store that I work at.
Thanks for sharing. I’m going to get a little personal here. When you relocated to your second home in Florida I’m curious if your location was influenced by the location of your church home as I believe you’re people of faith. Or were there other factors in choosing your new location and you would then seek a church home in your new area? Of course you don’t need to answer but I’m on a church staff in Southwest Florida and we are always interested in seeing believers involved in their local churches.
Hello! Thanks for the question! We knew we wanted to move to a more central location to be closer to more things. We always research churches in the area to see some potential places we could attend once moved. We usually can’t pick a place until we get a house and know for sure where we will be. Then once we move, we attend the churches that we have looked up and go to the one we liked the most. Hope that makes sense!
Hi, we're looking to move to central Florida and I just wanted to know what we're the 4 towns you narrowed it down to when you were searching for an area?
Hello! We looked at Ocala, Winter Garden, Clermont, Inverness, Mount Dora. We lived in Inverness for a couple years and loved it but then wanted to be more centrally located. We hope that helps!
Any regrets on the move. We have a house in Michigan and in The Villages. We are Florida residents. We spend Summer in Michigan and head South in Oct. My wife and I enjoy your videos especially the restaurant reviews. We eat out often. We find the restaurants in the Villages expensive and quality not meet expectations,
No regrets! The only thing we have said is maybe we should have done it sooner lol. We appreciate the kind words! We do our best to show as much as we can. Thanks for watching. Safe travels heading back down here!
Welcome to Florida! Great to have nice friends move into our community. Not as good as Mandalore but it's a fun place to live...my favorite place is Kennedy Space Center for obvious reasons...😊
Next episode why we moved back to missouri lol, I'm just joking😂, but serious question how are the rates on home owners insurance i heard it was crazy in florida right now. Is that true?
Haha no chance on moving back lol. Definitely higher rates but it also depends on where your house is located as well as when it was built and lots of other factors. Typically it is higher in FL!
@@thealtemlife ooh okay that makes sense. I actually live in new jersey and we are about to buy property in missouri. What would you say to someone moving out there? We just visited Ava and we loved it all.branson super nice springfield ehhh
@aebberup16 cool! We liked the outskirts of Springfield so like Nixa and Ozark. They are growing but the area is good. Plus you aren’t that far from Branson either so it’s a quick trip to visit all the places there. Safe travels with the move! It’s. It fun to move haha
45 years from Pa, never looked back. Welcome!
Thank you! We really love it!
You two are so awesome! I would have been so stressed out going through what you did during your move. I really enjoy all your videos and look forward to watching them. I can't imagine Tember a school teacher. She is too sweet and soft-spoken. Thank you for all your videos
Thanks for all the kind words and support! It was stressful but we just put our trust in the Lord and He made it happen. Thanks for watching!
Welcome to Florida for sure guys, we are.bless to have people like you moving into our.state
Thanks so much! Thanks for welcoming us! We sure love it here. Thanks for watching!
Good move.

We love it here! That is cool that you travel all over Florida. That’s what it’s all about! Thanks for watching!
I left Mo for florida also wanted to make youtube videos traveling on my sailboat. Been doing it for a year and a half no sign of slowing down.
Oh fun! That would be a great thing to document. Thanks for sharing!
❤👍Love your story and great adventure

We empathise both! Between 1994 and 2002, UK to Colorado, Colorado to Georgia, Georgia to Virginia, Virginia to UK.
Wow those are huge moves! We can’t imagine moving everything overseas! That’s a lot lol

Thanks for watching us! We appreciate it! We added that to our list to go try sometime. Thanks for sharing!
All moves are crazy experiences! You are where God planned you to be.
That is exactly right! We are thankful for all the support!
I moved from Iowa to Florida in 2016 and now I'm actually getting the itch to move back.
I did that once. Moved from Boston to Florida, moved back to Boston two years later. That was during the "OJ Simpson in a white bronco" era.
Wow! This is interesting!
We would say do whatever you feel like doing because you can always move again!
@@thealtemlife Thanks guys. The hard part obviously would be finding a job in another state that would pay enough. Also I'm pretty sure I saw you guys once in the Lowe's store that I work at.
@patrickhilton9253 yeah that would be tough. If you ever see us, feel free to say high!

Thank you for the welcome! We love it here. Haven’t been to Mandalore yet 😂. We will have to make a visit back out to Kennedy Space Center!
Do you live in the Villages? I know they have a family section
Hello! We do not. Visit there often to do food reviews but we don’t live there!
Next episode why we moved back to missouri lol, I'm just joking😂, but serious question how are the rates on home owners insurance i heard it was crazy in florida right now. Is that true?

Moving always sucks, I have 34 moves in me since 18 years old! (military)
Oh wow! Thanks a lot of moves! Bet you have seen lots of different places!
👍👍
Thanks!
You left out the part about moving in and sharing a house with termites as roommates! Just joking. Nice video.
Yeah! There’s that too lol. Glad our roommates are gone 😂
