A Portal From The New Jersey Turnpike Would Be So Much Easier...If Only










Just a few recent pictures and a few from last Jan and Aug. In the midst of packing and coordinating our move, Libby has turned one year old and is as sassy as ever! We celebrated by going out to eat and we'll celebrate again in TX.
 
We've enjoyed our time here in Philly but we're ready to get on the plane tomorrow and fly home to Dallas. Wish me luck with the two drama queens..... Wisely, we've decided NOT to drive cross country with the girls. NOT a good idea! I could just see us now....getting stuck in traffic on the New Jersey Turnpike and Chloe having to go potty etc...Stressful. We'd gladly drive to the NJ turnpike if only there were a portal that would spit us out onto the George Bush Turnpike...no such luck though...well anyway.....off to pack.

Goodbye Rocky

We're moving back home to Texas and while I'm ecstatic, to say the very least, the one regret I will have is the missed opportunity to jog up the Rocky steps, I envision sporting my gray jogging suit, my ipod playing the rocky theme, Atticus (our German shepherd) running along side me and at the top I would jog in place while holding my arms up and clinch my fists like I've just been crowned the uber light weight champion of the world.

Well, that dream is shattered [wiping single tear from cheek] considering we're catching a one way flight next Tuesday to TX and I'm in the midst of panic packing and waiting on a response from an offer we put in on a house in TX. [crossing fingers and toes]

So long Philly and the Museum of Art. So long spaghetti land. So long Valley Forge and the posh Main Line (shyeah, right and everyone thinks they have big hair in Texas....you haven't seen big hair until you've been to the main line) So long yummy pizza and delish ice cream. So long addictive Turkey Hill iced tea. So long occasional snow and nipple-erecting cold nights.

Hello Sunshine. Hello Tejas!!!!!!!!
