And to end the year we moved to Spokane! It is great to be back in Washington! I love being close to family and friends. Even though I had a great year and had lots of fun and did a lot of "first", it was hard to move so far away from everyone and everything I have ever known. It was hard moving to a new place where the only person I knew was Mike. I missed my family and friends a lot and am glad to finally be lots closer!
