Here's to good-bye...
I've been intending to start this blog for a while now, but I've been putting it off because I've been unsure what to say. I guess there's no more putting it off, though, because it's currently 2:30AM on Tuesday in Oklahoma, which means that we leave tomorrow. It doesn't yet seem real, but I'm sure that'll all change when we actually land in Valencia.
This past weekend was spent in Springfield, where I got to see some of my favorite people (MSU friends, Aaron, Krissy, the Dieke family, parents, etc). Overall, those few days were amazing, and Sunday made for the perfect ending. 104 and friends got dressed up and headed to Brew Co, and our sweet little friends surprised us with a going away party at Scholars. Thanks to all who came and/or helped plan it! You all are amazing and so sweet! I am so blessed by you.
It was a little hard to say good-bye on Monday afternoon, but really, that's a good thing. The fact that I have people in my life who make saying good-bye to so hard shows how very blessed I am. In some ways, it seems like it's going to be forever before I see the Springfield crew again, but I think back on this past semester and realize how quickly time went by, and I know that five months really is not that long, and sad good-byes just mean that there will be joyous reunions! What happy thought!
Considering the fact that it's almost 2:45AM, I should probably try to sleep. Today will be full of last minute errands, packing, and phone calls. Here's to my last day (for a while!) in Pryor Creek!
Love to all!
...tomorrow's going to come too soon.

Hello, my lover-girl! I don't know if you've read Em's blog yet or not, but my reply was to both of you, so you should check it out if you haven't already.
Anyway, since you are going to read that, I don't have a whole lot left to say except that I love you very much and miss you already! It was really hard to say goodbye yesterday, but I know you are going to have the time of your life and enjoy the trip more than you could ever imagine!
Like you said, it being so hard to say goodbye just shows you how blessed you are! We will all be thinking about you and will all be jealous of all your TOF travels. Be safe and have a great time! And one more thing--don't forget to keep in touch with all of us back here missing you!
Lots of love!
Even though you are going away you'll have people visit! Your family and then me and ash! That's exciting!
Hi Mommy! You are going to have the most amazing time!!! You and Em will love it! I just know it! And like you said, while it may be hard to say goodbye, or rather see ya later, that only means that when I run up to you and attack you both at the airport on Spring break and when you get back to the states, it will be that much sweeter! And be ready, because I WILL attack you...maybe you should wear some football pads or something...
I love you soooooo much!!!!!! And of course will miss you like crazy! But we can totally get through this!!
