Adios, Texas!

Seeing as we will officially be leaving the great state of Texas in two weeks, I thought I should give the Lone Star State a proper farewell. I have actually been pretty sad the last few days about the upcoming move; crying unexpectedly (oh, that ‘s probably just PMS!), struck with nostalgic moments where I stare off into space and generally having my thoughts muddled with all things TEXAS! Over the next few days I will be sharing with you some memorable moments from our many years here. When you see that cool Texas picture above, you will know it’s time for Adios, Texas!

Many folks wonder what possessed us to move here, 2400 miles away from our home state of Pennsylvania. I always describe it as putting up a map and throwing a dart, very random. As newlyweds, we felt the need to escape family and friends (sorry guys, please don’t take offense!) and to start a new life together. The experiment has been a complete success, in my opinion. Granted, our families have suffered because of the distance between us, but all in all it was the best decision Tom and I made.

I expect by the move date I will be a total basket case. I will probably need a new laptop because the waterworks I’m about have will ruin it! Luckily, Tom is able to fly back here to watch over creepy movers and sign a bunch of paperwork, so I can relax just a little.
