Done. Sad. Excited. Relieved.Hot. Anxious. Ready.

Today is our last official day living in Kirksville, MO. We will miss this little town. We have thoroughly enjoyed our experience here and the people we have met. I will miss being able to walk everywhere, having a built in exercise group everyday of the week, free swimming (though ironically the whole month of June was rainy so we only got to go swimming 3 times. We managed to squeeze one more swim time in the day we packed all our stuff in the truck), the library with the kids section complete with train and stuffed horses, the many parks enabling us to choose a "different park mama" if Chloe so pleases, Kirksville 1st ward, the Taco Bell (this one has THE best Nacho Supreme and Big Taste Taco's-our usual), SAA, all the free stuff around town, and more.
This is random, but this is my lamp I took from shabby to lovely in minutes. Finished product.

We are the proud owners of a scooter. I posted on this website here that we were looking for a scooter and Wala...we had two scooter offers within the hour and we had bought this bad boy within the week. Brad loves it and grandma's, don't worry, Chloe doesn't ride it-that often.

And...my Brad. He's officially done with 2nd year of med school. Close those books and turn off the desk lamp, Brad. It's time for him to get out in to the "real medical world" and start doing his "thang!" I am SOOOOO proud of him. He had a successful two years and I just can't say enough about how impressed I am with him. Love that guy.

Oh, and P.S. In the past week I found a tick on my (whisper) bumb, then Brad found one on himself, and then we found one on Chloe the next day. I found another one on myself (another B unmentionable body part)and I am DONE with ticks and ants.

So, we're moving. Glad Chloe said to me..."mama new friends...new friends and new mommies!" We are all very excited to get the show on the road.
