Goodbye Louisiana

I'm not going to write too much right now because I am still crying to easily about leaving Louisiana!! I never ever thought I would be so sad driving away from our little country home, I was a mess. I started thinking about how much I actually liked living in the country and all the wonderful friends I have made in the few years living there. I think it was a great experiance for Emily and especially for me. I learned a lot about bugs, frogs and people ! It was so sad for ME to see Emily have her last day at school and dance. All her little friends saying Bye , and Emily not really understanding she will never see these kids again. On the positive side , we are back together as a family. Andy flew home on Thanksgiving Day. We were so excited, Emily and I were betting on who could run to Daddy the fastest! Of course she beat me ! We had a good Thanksgiving and got to say bye to everyone but Liz and Kevin! Friday was moving day and unfortunately there was alot more to do then I had anticipated. But we got it done with some help from Church members. We left for Utah Saturday early morning. Our drive went really well and actually didn't feel as long as it was. We stopped in Amarillo, Texas for the night. We got up early the next day just to do it all over again, 12 hours in a car with a 4 year old! Emily is actually a really good traveler . She always has been . Even when she was really little she would just watch her DVD player and hang out ! We got to Las Vegas on Sunday night about 8pm. We hit a little snow on the way but nothing to scary . Andy had to get up early Monday morning to get to work. Emily and I are visiting with Gramma and Grampa for a few days then we will head up to Utah on Thursday .
Andy seems to really like his new job and we are excited about being Utah and excited about the many possiblities for our family .
