2 Weeks

In less than two weeks, we will officially be Texas residents again. It's a day that we have been praying for so long, and yet knowing that it's quickly approaching makes me wish it would slow down. When people ask if we are excited, I always say yes, but it's bittersweet. That is the best way to describe this experience.

Mason was just five days shy of turning six months when we moved out here in January of 2008. Not only was a new mom, we didn't know anyone before moving out here. We knew the best way to make new friends would be to find a church we both liked. Thankfully, it happened quickly. For most people, that isn't always the case. Our friends have become our second family.

This weekend, Adam is treating me to a girls weekend with some of my best girl friends. We will be spending the weekend getting pedicures, eating out, slumber parties in a hotel, and shopping in Camarillo. It's much needed and we also get to celebrate Marissa's birthday a little early. It will definitely be a weekend that I will cherish.
