So I found this super cute wallet on Etsy and thought, "wow, only 8 bucks...score!". Yeah, that excitement was short-lived until I realized I bought the PATTERN to MAKE IT! Ugh! I do NOT sew and this task seems overwhelming. It will be interesting to see how this one turns out for sure!
I finally have something to post! Although, I'm not sure who actually reads my blog, but I consider it therapy for me at least.:) The long awaited First Day of School! These kiddos have had one long summer. They got out of school the first week in June and didn't have to go back until today due to moving to Washington when we did. They truly lucked out, but inevitably, the fun had to come to an end. Breigh was running around last night making sure she had all her things and told me "I'm so excited, but I'm so nervous too!". I know they're both going to be just fine. Here's hoping they had a great 1st day!
For real this time! We are finally moving to the pacific northwest and could not be happier about it! I feel like I am finally "going home":) As I was pondering this big move (seriously corner to corner!), I just realized all of the wonderful things I will be giving up here in Florida to start a new life in Redmond, Washington. When I first moved to Florida, my whole life changed....for the better. I had instant friends, everyone was so warm and welcoming. I finished school and started my career here. I met my husband here. I had my children here. We ended up in the most awesome ward ever here. And as I sit and think about moving, it brings tears to my eyes. We've had some really great memories here. My mom always says that they have picked up a spouse everywhere they have moved and the purpose for moving to Florida with my parents 16 years ago was, without a doubt, solely for me to find my husband and start our new life together, for whom I am eternally grateful. So, we're ending one chapter of our life and starting another. It's bitter sweet, but I will never forget Florida.
