And so it begins...

Our adventure to South Florida begins tomorrow afternoon.

Well, if you want to be technical, I won't officially be there until Friday since I'm making a pit stop in Titusville along the way to visit family and give the kiddos a break from the car. I still can't believe that we're actually leaving, or that tonight is my last night in this house. If only I could just pick up my entire house and move it, backyard and all! At least then I could spare myself from the dreading packing and unpacking.

I literally am so exhausted I could probably sleep standing up! Daniel has turned into a drill sergeant and there is no rest for the weary around here, lol. We've been organizing, cleaning, and packing for the past two weekends straight! Not that you could really tell by the looks of this place, but really I swear we have been working hard! :)

Melissa put together a farewell dinner for me last night at Copeland's restaurant. I had such a good time! BBAT seriously has the best group of girls around. And many thanks to Melissa for planning everything, for being an awesome friend, and making me feel so special! After dinner we stopped at Seven Bridges for drinks. Ironically enough, Seven Bridges was the first restaurant I ever went to in Jacksonville - it was our very first night in our tiny apartment in Bartram Park. Roughly two years and a few months later I went back, but this time to mark our farewell from Jacksonville :(

On the bright side (I'm having to look at the bright side a lot lately to keep from being too sad!), I've always wanted some adventure in my life. When we moved back to Titusville after my graduation, I thought we would be happy there - we had family, friends, new house, good jobs. But there was alway that nagging feeling of boredom. I wanted to see different places, experience living in different places! Maybe I've had that desire for travel ever since we used to sail. Who knows. Now I can add South Florida to my "places I've lived in" check list...hello, adventure!! :)
