Wow. A week has gone by already being here in Kansas. Our new place is starting to feel like a home and there are only a few more straggling boxes lying around. One big box in particular in Sam's room.
The weather here is about 10 degrees better than it is in Chicago, and believe me, I don't miss the weather in Chicago. Our place is actually on ground level where as before we could peer out across the pond and the parking lot in our old place. See, even Melvyn and Sam are wondering what's going on.
Our town home is in a great location. We have plenty of restaurants to choose from, Town Center Plaza (like the Old Orchard shopping center), and grocery stores. I never thought that it would feel so weird to be back. I guess after living up there and seeing the same people everyday, everything really grows on you. I miss it. Well, let me rephrase that, I miss the people. I miss Dominoes with my wacky IH friends, and seeing all their friendly smiling faces, and I miss the few Navy people I talked to often. Joel and I weren't as lucky to keep in good contact with old high school friends, but I'm sure that I have made some life long ones in the Navy, whether them being Navy or IH. Don't worry Meeghan and Raymond I haven't forgotten about you either! We will truly miss our card and upside down margarita nights! Can't wait til you come and visit. For the ones that know who you are...you are my dear lifelong friends.
I'll post pictures of our new place once it isn't so messy. Check back in a couple days. For now check out our daring, assisted walking/standing, man!

Remember... there's no place like home!!! We are thrilled to have the 3 of you back in KS! There is nothing like a Sam squeeze and that smile... oh that smile!! Everything will work out great, just keep believing.
Wow! YOU GUYS MOVED BACK TO KS?!?!?!
When did this happen? Did you guys find jobs? What's up? How cool! I hope you guys are very happy and loving being home!!!
Becca,
We moved back to Kansas last Monday, so we have been here for a week and a half already! The Navy decided to let me go 8 months early, and everything has been complete chaos since. Joel is doing interviews currently and I have taken over a new position of being a stay at home mom...TOO EXCITED!
OMG Joel, what a leg shot! Love your Mom!!!!
Glad to see that you guys made it back to Jayhawk country safely. I had to wait until the NCAA Tournament was over before emailing you. I forgot who won. Oh yeah, the GATORS. Things are going well here at the clinic, but I have no one to talk sports with since you left. Thanks for the hat and be looking for MIZZOU items coming your way. Peace.
