Does it always rain in Missouri? It rained from the moment we got off the plane to the moment we boarded the plane home. I took two pictures and this one of this Amish man was one of the two. Yes, this is just a few miles away from where we are going to live. I could not believe how green and gorgeous the area was- it was beautiful! I did have a mini breakdown when I realized how small the town was. But, as we left, signed a lease on a townhome and got ready to fly home to Eliza, I knew we were doing the right thing. So in 3.5 months we will be moving to a small town in Missouri. I will have the pleasure of learning why Maere loves Walmart so! Haa. No- but I do realize Walmart and online shopping are my only avenues to shopping- this will be good on the budget. Here we go.
Ah, so exciting. My family was just telling me the other day about how you drove into town and immediately burst into tears. Nate and I did a small, Midwest town (Champaign, IL) for med school too and learned to love it. There are good-hearted, humble people in that part of the country. You'll make many great friends and memories. You can do this! :) Enjoy the journey.
ReplyDeleteThat will be such a fun adventure! We can enjoy the Med school route together! I would love to hang out with you before you move!
ReplyDeleteSar! Love all the updates. I want to hear ALL about your trip. And I'm a little embarrassed you remember my fondness for Walmart. Although, I'm happy it may be a source of comfort to you. Even here in Utah now, with a Target close, I still make my way to Walmart for shopping!
ReplyDeletelove you, call me
Sar -- we are so excited for you guys! Call or email me sometime. I think I have a cute friend living in the same town. Her hubby is in Physical Therapy school. She has 2 little kids and would probably make a fun friend to go to WalMart with!!! Love your sweet family!
