Lets see, what's happened since I posted last? We took our first family beach trip with Caleb and my mom, dad, sister, and brother-in-law to Destin, FL. It was great!
I also found out that I'm going to be an aunt! Jenny and James are expecting Elijah James Smith to arrive around March 2012!
Then they found out we are also expecting baby #2 to arrive in mid-July! It's really cool to be pregnant at the same time with my sister. I know our kids will be super close, just like us.
Many of you know how much I love Halloween. Well, I love it even more now that I have a kid! If you remember, last year Caleb was a spider. This year, he was a cowboy! Thanks to my mother-in-law, Patsy Norris, for making the outfit for me!
You would think that's enough news for now, but we have more. After 6 years in Knoxville, Jason and I are moving back to Murfreesboro to be close to family. I have to say, it's pretty bittersweet. Knoxville is where we started our marriage together. It's where we had our first apartment together, our first house, our first child, our first church home. This is the place where we have so many wonderful memories and friends. The place where we learned what marriage was all about and helped others understand the same. It's the place where we've laughed, cried, struggled, succeeded, rejoiced, lived....
I trusted in God when we moved here and I wouldn't change anything. I still trust God in that I feel it's time to move back. I know He has plans for us and those plans are good. I know we'll remain close with our friends here. There's no doubt in my mind. The friends we've made here are beyond awesome people. In fact, it seems rude to just call them 'friends.' They're not just friends, they're family. They've stood by our sides when it was time to celebrate and held us up when we needed support. I've said it before, but I'll say it again here. Thank you. We wouldn't be where we are without you all. You know who you are. We love you more than words could ever say on this blog.
Until next time...
