goodbye rexburg, hello virginia

our little family of three has moved to virginia... although you probably already know that.
a couple months ago jon and i were sitting in our morbidly hot apartment talking about the semester ahead for him at idaho state university. he was to start the law enforcement program in just 3 short weeks and we were just trying to sort out the last details. i couldn't shake this un-settling feeling. not like something terrible was going to happen but unsure about the drastic change that was going to occur.  i was also enrolled at the paul mitchell academy to start a few weeks after he did. i would be going to school nights and he would be days. so, we kept talking. we both felt like we were headed in the wrong direction, even though it seemed like the perfect plan. then out of no where, jon said... "we should move". and that's when it all began. it sounded so crazy but felt so right. we prayed, went to the temple and decided that our family needed to be in virginia for the next little while.

jon is working nights at pumonkey regional jail and applying at different police departments. i am staying home with my little man and taking a photography class next semester.

i never thoguht i would miss rexburg but i do! i miss my beautiful nightly run to the temple and the awesome sunset on the way back. i miss g's dairy and their deliciousness. i miss the safe, small town feel. but most of all i miss all our awesome friends! you know who you are! rexburg will always have a special place in my heart.

i am looking forward to the time we have in virginia and already love it so much!

one thing i have learned is that life never goes as planned. and that is the best thing about it! life is so unpredictable and i love it!

on another note... my baby is 11 months old today...only one more month before he is big! sniff sniff
p.s. i can't handle this cuteness anymore!
