And we're off!

So, yeah, I haven't blogged in quite a while! We've been busy I guess...having a baby! This is my beautiful, very sassy daughter, Abigail Grace Storm, born June 12, 2008 at 6:01 pm, weighing in at 6 pounds, 13 ounces.

And here she is post bath:


And now, we are moving to the Great North! My husband got a job in North Dakota (of ALL places, lol!) in the Wind Energy Industry. FINALLY we will be leaving Lubbock! YaY!

You know, I have spent many years picking on Lubbock because of the arrogant people here and the rather ugly landscape. But, in retrospect, I think it is important to note a few positive things: I met my husband at Tech, got married by the JP in the County Court House on 11/20/2006 (we had our ceremony later, on 08/11/2007), we had our lovely daughter here at Covenant Lakeside, and I've met many people who will turn into lifelong friends. So, it hasn't been all bad.

We will high-tail it outta here next week...leaving Lubbock in our rearview mirror. Unlike the song, however, I'm really not sure that we will ever come to regret leaving, but we certainly would regret never having come. There comes a time in everyone's life when it is time to move on, and now is our time. But I know that Brandon and I wouldn't redo the last several years of our lives.
