Finally, an update! About two weeks ago we left Southaven, MS and drove for two days until we arrived in Arizona! It was a long trip, but thanks to the help of my parents, it wasn't nearly as bad as I anticipated :)
Miles was a whole lot of help during the packing process!
Before we left, we had to say goodbye to many good friends we made while in the South. I wish I had gotten pictures of every person we loved there, but I didn't. Moving is craziness. But here are a few pictures that I did manage to snap before we left.
On Caroline's last day at her school, we all went and had lunch with her class and took pictures of her with her school friends. All her teachers and friends said how much they would miss her and every kid in her class gave her a hug - one by one - before she left.
We had a barbecue at Uncle Ryan's new house the weekend before we moved. It was a lot of fun. Caroline is sure going to miss Uncle Ryan's four wheelers and her new cousins!
Dave and Mario worked together in Mississippi. Their family is so nice and often invited us to their house in Memphis for some authentic Mexican dinners. They were always fun and we'll miss them.
Caroline's adorable and crazy primary class!
It's crazy to think that we will probably never see many of these people face to face again. Of all the places we've lived since Dave and I have been married, we lived in Southaven the longest. Caroline's earliest childhood memories will be from there. Bittersweet feelings to move on.
We're getting settled in here in Dave's parents' house who just left on their mission to Palmyra. It's strange, but nice, being back in this town - right where our family started.
