Friends
We moved to our current neighborhood almost 4 years ago. We left a town that I loved. And we left our friends.
The first few years we lived here were rough. We didn't know anyone and since I work full time I didn't meet anyone in our hood. For like 2 years. But then we went to a neighborhood party. And we met one family. And then we met another, and another. And now, as I sit here typing, I am surrounded by three close neighborhood friends and our collective 12 kids at our multi-family garage sale. And I can finally say I am happy with where I live. Because of friends. And I am so happy that my girls will grow up knowing what it is like to live in a hood surrounded by wicked awesome peeps.
My girls with some of our neighbor pals.
We have been continuing our summer of fun! I can't wait till I win the lotto so I can stay home with them all the time. And then "lunch" and "yoga" while they are at school. One can dream, right? ;)
That's all for now folks! Hold your friends close and keep buying those lotto tickets!
These are such great layouts! And so happy you are feeling at home now in your new neighborhood! It's so hard to get adjusted and to meet those that you feel comfortable with and so happy for you!
