Missing Socal

I got to chat with a couple of my favorite socal girls this week and it made me a little homesick. We are loving Modesto, loving our new house, loving being so close to family and we have definitely been BUSY, but Dave was in LA this week for business and we were here. He was working hard, I know, but he still got to see some people and eat at some fun restaurants and enjoy a peek of the South Bay while I was battling heat and sleepless nights and this slow pregnant body. (Obviously that would be the same whether I was in LA or here!) 

So instead of being sad, I thought I would send a special shout out to my good friends. You see, Becky and Sheri threw us a going away party on our last day in the South Bay. They had a pile of Southern California postcards for everyone to fill out. Since then we have received a slow trickle of mail from our favorite socal residents with pictures from some of our favorite places. Just when I thought we were all out of postcards, another one would come! It was a great reminder of the love and friendships we still have even though we may live a bit farther away. I have LOVED getting these in the mail, l have LOVED sharing them with Levi and Dave and I have LOVED hanging them up on our fridge to look at every day. Well it's official: we just got our last postcard. Instead of being sad I'm choosing to be excited about where we are now and thankful (so extremely thankful) for our great friends in the South Bay. We love you guys and miss you and hope to see you soon!
