Long Live Abilene

Alex, Turner and I took a quick trip to our favorite little town of Abilene this weekend to see our best friends, Sierra & Grant, graduate with their Masters degrees! So proud of their hard work, and excited for their future. I see big things in store for them.  Maybe next year Turner will have a little buddy to play with? 


Had to post this : )

I couldn't help but think while we were in Abilene that 1 year ago I was walking across the same stage receiving my MBA degree, and the next day we packed up everything and moved to Austin.  Alex and I were so excited for the next steps in our lives, and look how far we have come. I never would have thought we would be back one year later with a little boy. I've never been happier in my life. I'm blessed with amazing friends, a wonderful husband, and a healthy son. Thank you Lord for your abundant blessings. I hope I never take them for granted. 

Goodbye Abilene

I have mixed emotions about leaving Abilene this weekend.  I'm excited to move to Austin to be closer to my family and experience more of the city life.  But on the other hand, Abilene has been such an amazing home for the past 5 1/2 years. I will never forget the many memories friends and I have created here.  Having to say goodbye to some of my closest friends is very hard to do. I will miss the small town feel, no traffic, and a wonderful community of Christians.  Thank you Abilene, HSU, and all my friends for the best college experience!

Here are a few memories I've made.
