Moving On

Tomorrow is the big day: we go to Provo to pack up the truck and then we are off. We get into Mesa on Wednesday and we move in on Thursday. We moved out of our apartment last Wednesday. Since we were sick all weekend, we were behind and barely made it out on time. We've been staying at Justin's uncle's place in Highland for the last week.

Everything has happened so fast that it's just finally beginning to sink in: I am done with college forever, I am moving to a new state, I will be working (hopefully), Justin will be going to school, we will have our own house, we will be starting a family this year. It's weird to be growing up so fast! Twenty-one is still young and yet I have moved on to the next stage of life.

I'm sad to go. We had a goodbye party and have been visiting some friends this past week for the last time. There are many people I will miss and hope to keep in touch with.

On the other hand, I am excited to make new friends and meet new people. I am looking forward to having time to do things I didn't have time for before (like this blog). I am excited for the heat and sunshine. And I am way excited about our new place! We bought a mattress set last week and I can't wait to buy more furniture and decorate our home.

I hope we travel safely and are able to find jobs. Those are our priorities right now!

It's funny to think that seven years ago we were hanging out at stake dances... you've got an awesome life ahead of you, and it's more than we could have imagined as kids. Best wishes!
