Spring 2016

Where is my flying car??! C’mon, you thought you’d have one by now too.

One daughter is turning 14 years old in a few days, another about to enter middle school and two toddlers that have replaced my teen tiny babies- where has the time gone?!

Last weekend we had our first big BBQ party here in Nevada. It felt good; it felt like home. Sure, there was no poker game afterwards and the party was over by 8pm, but it felt good and familiar nonetheless.

There have been no crazy life changes, nobody has lost their job in a while, we haven’t had to move lately, in general things are good.

My 32nd birthday is right around the corner and I am starting to feel old. It’s an odd feeling after being the perpetual “youngest” in every social circle.

The weather is getting warmer and the sun is out nearly every day and we are loving life in the desert; Spring is the most beautiful season here.

My best friend is coming to visit in a few weeks- it will be the first time I’ve seen her since we moved here two years ago!!! I am beyond excited! Thankfully she is able to stay a whole week, but I know that will feel like a day. It’s so delicious to have her visit to look forward to, it will be so sad when she leaves. But, I will get to see her twice this summer because in July I am in her sister’s wedding. Which also means a trip home to Washington- driving. Not looking forward to the driving part haha. But, since Al won’t fly, it is the only option.

So, that’s my Spring, 2016. Full of promise and potential for a great summer full of laughter and joy and growing old.
