Well we made it to SC and celebrated Christmas together as a family. It was the best Christmas ever. I miss everyone else but was so empty with my pookie bear. I feel complete again. After breakfast and presents, I got the turkey in the oven and we went to Colonial Dorchester Park and explored. Its only about a minute from the house. This is a picture I took down by the river. I can't stop laughing everytime I look at Harley. I swear he has a big smile just for this picture.

These are the remains of the fort walls.

Harley Davidson meets Hello Kitty!

Me and the girls along with Harley posing again.

A really awesome picture that Kylee took.

The trees and the park

The remains of the bell tower at the park.

It was another great day with my family. I am so happy to have us all together and can't wait for the next adventure. Tomorrow we are going bowling with a friend of Scott's and her kids. Love and miss you all.

Albuquerque NM

We finally made it to Albuquerque. The weather was horrible today. Pretty much white knuckled it most of the way. It was pretty nice through Moab, about 50 degrees but cloudy. Shortly after that it started raining and didn't stop until just before we got here.

Harley is doing well. He is a little stressed and of course is barking at everyone but you can tell he is just really unsure about what is going on. He was however quite enjoying sticking his head out the window.

We didn't get to take many pictures today mostly because of the horrible weather. This one was taken in Moab.

I really wanted to get one of me leaving Utah but when we finally saw a sign it said welcome to New Mexico. Guess we missed the Utah and Colorado signs. LOL. Everything is fabulous though. Love you all.

HOLY COW!!!!

So honey, just wanted to let you know that I had to get rid of so many clothes that I am going to need to buy lots of new stuff once I get there.

Last day of work, check, car loaded, check! What else to do? Hopefully I will be able to sleep tonight however, I am already feeling the "what did I forget". The girls will be coming back in a couple of weeks so I guess if there is anything that I really need, I can have them mail it to me. I just can't wait to be with my Scotty, pookie bear again. Nothing else really matters, right?

I have been asked numerous times if I will miss Utah. I have to say that yes, I will miss it but honestly I am so excited for a new adventure. Maybe its a mid-life crisis or something. My daughters are on their own, Quinton is a teenager and thinks that he is on his own (we strive to keep him believing this, however, not true), and well after finishing my degree years ago, I have wanted to use it. I am sad to give up a great paying job with security, sad that I probably won't see snow for a very long time (although right now this is questionable), but mostly sad to leave my family and friends that I love so very much.

Mom, plan on coming out soon, spend a month or two with us! you will love it out there. I love you tons!

Anyway, I love you all and will miss you all. We are planning on being in Ladson by Thursday. If we hit some weather, maybe Friday. Pray for us please! Off we go.....

Its official...

Just two more days of work and I am on my way. I guess I should say "we" are on our way. Kylee, Katie, Harley and myself will be making our way to South Carolina via automobile. I am looking forward to being with the greatest man in the world again. My heart has been empty without him. Scott is my best friend and the greatest person in my life! That should be a huge compliment to him because I have some really amazing people in my life.

Anyway, there have been many of you that have asked me to keep in touch so I thought I would start a blog that I could update and then whenever you feel like you want to see what I am doing, you can come here and check it out. That way I won't ever forget to stay in touch with everyone. Next Tuesday you will start seeing posts about our trip. A constant update about where we are at and what is going on. Hopefully some pictures too!
I love you all and will miss my family and friends in Utah but am looking forward to all the new friends that I will make in South Carolina. Plus the weather is an added bonus!
