Goodbye California...for now.

My hopes of staying in California til the end of May and enjoying my last few months with friends had been cut short. Jason needed to start work right away so within 3weeks of accepting the job with Puma we had to pack up our stuff and our family and catch a flight to the east coast. Packing up my life and my memories was really hard. I have had the best past 4 years of my life living in California. It's where Jason and I started our family. I will always have fond memories of my children's births and watching them hit milestones in our apartment in Dos Vientos. I'm going to miss all our park days, our beach play time, and all our playdates with friends and parties with the adults. I've grown to love our ward family and have made friendships that will last a lifetime. It will be hard to not feel the suns warmth all year round, and I will miss not taking my kids to casting calls and all the fun I had with that!  I can still remember pulling into our apartments parking lot for the first time It was a cool breezy June day.  Walking into our new apartment and saying "ok, this is home" I was happy, and loved the view and how new everything was.
This, on top of all the stress of moving has brought me to tears many times.
I try to stay positive and happy and I feel sad. It was hard to say goodbye to friends and felt easier to just leave without saying goodbye, because to me it doesn't feel like a goodbye but only a "see ya later".
