Because my life is soooo interesting...

My great aunt Sharon asked for this blog, and when have I been known to say no to anyone? This will be the place to come to see updates on my experiences in Anchorage, Alaska! Never in a million years did I think I would be moving to this beautiful state, but here I am! I'm making the move in 16 days! Why, you ask? (Actually, you're probably not asking because everyone who is going to be reading this knows full well why I'm moving) Is it because I love packing and moving and will do it every chance I get? Is it because change is something I crave and openly invite into my life? Not hardly!! I'm moving 4,000 miles away because there's a very special, super wonderful guy who I love very much who lives there named Tim, and he is well worth it! :-)

Mom and I will be flying up on June 26th, and she's going to spend a few days with me helping me find an apartment and get settled. And we're going to go whale watching with Tim that week, which we're super pumped about!! She'll leave on July 3rd, and then Tim and I will fly to Phoenix on the 20th to visit my bestest friend from LCU, Kristen and her husband Adam. Tim's uncle actually lives in Phoenix too, so we'll spend some time with him as well. Then, we leave at the crack of dawn the next day to go to Dallas. We'll go cheer on the Red Sox against the Rangers that night :-) and spend the next day with the fam, and then we're hopping in my car and heading back to Anchorage! Yep, that's right, we're DRIVING all the way from Texas to Anchorage! It'll take about 5 days...Tim has it all planned out and I'm pretty excited. I like road trips, and I'll get to see parts of the country I've never seen, plus we get to spend a night in Calgary! That's pretty cool, I think.

Well, there's the plan for my life for the next couple of months (finding a job will occur in there sometime, hopefully! I'm applying for school secretary and teacher assistant positions every chance I get). Hopefully I'll have some interesting things to write about that you will enjoy reading. If nothing else, I can always post pictures of the gorgeous mountains that I will be surrounded by. :-)

Have a blessed week!
