Come and Gone

Happy New Year! Last year went by so quickly for me since we had a lot of changes going on. It seems like years since we left New York. My little kids are now big kids, and we are getting settled into a career. I feel like 2013 will be a great year for me to organize myself and my home, work on things that have been put aside, and try to relax and feel more peaceful. At least until we move again in August! :)

We spent a couple of days in Dallas last week. It is only about 2 hours away, and has a lot more things to do than our little town does! We ate delicious burgers, went to the Dallas World Aquarium, went to the temple, and did some shopping. I admit that we are not used to crowds or traffic anymore, so it was a little bit overwhelming! We had a lot of fun, and it has been great to be able to travel around our area a little bit.


Our good friends came to visit us and help us ring in the new year! You know they are good friends when they not only come to visit you when you live in NYC, but also when you live in Wichita Falls, Texas! :) We took them bowling and tried to take them out for some delicious Texas BBQ, but everywhere was closed! We miraculously stayed up until midnight, played some fun games, and are so glad that they came with their cute little guy.
