Well, we made it to WA!!! But I have been cut, cold turkey from AZ and yes, i have my sad moments. Here are some of my fave things I'm going to miss. listen to the song playing "You're going to miss this" Its totally how I feel. ( Mandy I know you hate country but listen to the chorus at least for me ; ) Love you girl.
The beautiful sunrise and sunsets that AZ has to offer. I loved my runs and rides with Dustin through the desert. The weather is pretty spectacular ; )
This is the beautiful Hale family. Boy do I miss them and their cute kids Rachel and Drew. Whit(ney) and I met at the library storytime when we first moved to AZ. I knew we would be great friends. She has been such a blessing in my life and I am truly grateful to have met her and shared so many special memories together. She is a wonderful mother and such an example to me of organization and love. Love you Whit(ney)! (oops...click on the picture to see whitney's family....I stole it from her blog...hope you don't mind whit and I don't know how to make it fit my blog)
I LOVE the Cactuses. I will miss not seeing them anymore. We loved the desert so much.
I am the type of person who gets attached to one store and this is the store that I fell in-love with. One of those simple weekly outings that I will miss. Thanks Bashas for treating us so well. (a little pricey at times but I loved the convenience and the people that worked there). I like to support local stores too ; )
I MISS this house like crazy. Such great memories. Perfect for our 2 year stay. Our community pool just a few houses down was full of fun and kept us cool. Love you 3316!
This is the very cool Johnson family(minus Ryan...couldn't find a family pic ) What a blessing they have been to us! Dalan was best friends with Rex and Jett and Macie loved Asher. Our weekly date nights were fun for everyone and our daily outings together were always fun and adventures. I met Mandy at church and we hit it off right away. Mandy has been a true example of service for others and her postive outlook on life is contagious. We had SO much fun together and grew so close poolside, laughing, crying and sharing stories together. Love you Mand(y)!!!
Our sweet Kai will always be a memory of AZ. It was a moment that changed me forever and my outlook on life. I grew so much from this experience and will always have so much compassion for others who have suffered a loss. On my runs through the desert I could feel him around me through those rays of desert sunshine. Whenever I visit the desert and the ocean I will think of him.
We love you AZ and miss you already. Amazing memories and friendships made that will last a lifetime!!! Thank you for sharing your beauty and showing us what life is like in the desert.....simply wonderful ; )
