HELLO! So it has been QUITE some time since our blog was last updated, but I've been waiting for just the right time...& that time is now!
I started a new chapter of my life last week: I MOVED TO PLANO, TX!!! I got a job teaching private voice lessons for Plano ISD earlier this summer and finally moved up last Friday. It was definitely an emotional endeavor. All summer I felt so ready to move, and then the night before the move, the reality of it all hit me. I was finally an adult. I now had to take care of myself. That was a scary thought, but after talking to my parents I felt MUCH better about this new chapter in my life.
The next morning my family & I hit the road to Waco to get all of my stuff from storage, then made the trek up to Plano! Two sorority sisters of mine (Rebecca & Maddie) helped us unload my life into my new apartment. It was SO great to catch up with them(& I found out that Maddie lives just down the street from me)! After some rest, my family & I went out to dinner & my little brothers(Matt, 13 & Sean, 12) gave me lots of wonderful advice on living on my own. I was getting all emotional again knowing that I'd be so far away from them but they knew EXACTLY what to say to make me feel good about the move! I can't wait for them to visit!!!
The next day my dad & brothers went to an Eagle Scout event in Irving & my mom & I went shopping to stock me up on the essentials. Then my family left to go back home & the unpacking began. It took me less than a week to get everything unpacked & looking home-y!

I LOVE my new place! It's a work in progress(I'll paint once I start making money & I have some furniture to replace). I can't wait to have people over! I am so excited to explore DFW, find a church, start work(& meet my kiddos!!!), make new friends, & catch up with old ones!!! I just feel so blessed & am ready to take on grown up life!!!
