Everything's a changin...

I am moving to Modesto in less than 2 weeks. It doesn't feel real. My existence as I know it is going to completely change...again. I can't say I don't like change, because that would be a lie. I have moved plenty of times and really enjoy getting to know new environments and people. I just think this time it will be a bit weird. Mostly because I am moving back. I did it before when I came back from Spain, and it felt weird. This time I have been away for a year and a half rather than 3 months. Quite a difference. I know that this move is good for me financially, and it will be good to be able to see my family on a more regular basis. I just don't really know where my place is there anymore. I haven't kept up with many people, and I haven't really been a part of the church scene in a while. It will definitely take some getting used to. On a more positive note, I will get to help the lovely Kimberly with her oh so exciting plans! I will also be able to buy a car in the near future, which is kind of the main reason for taking this step. I can't say that I am ecstatic about this upcoming change, but believe me, I am looking forward to some of the excitement that will come with it.

I am excited for you to come home! I miss you! I am sure your fam and Kim will be GREATLY appreciative too. God has a purpose for this....and I am excited to see how and what He does in your life. A car?? AWESOME. Thats exciting. What kind are you looking at? I sooo was gonna trade my car for a Jetta/Passat...but since I am probably moving to Brasil next year...I decided not to :::(

Anyway. Love you girl. Hope this change turns out to be better than you expected. We miss you...Oh and you should come to our Sat night IgNite!!:) We'd love to have you!

Im glad you are moving back and that you will be close to me, unlike Jessica!
I really need some support in this area and it will be fun to have you home. I know your family is looking forward to you being around more.
We will have to plan a weekend visit to Jess. I also need to look at dresses...
