So this post is a little bit late, but better late than never...right? Wesley and I had a fantastic weekend together spending time with family, and as always the weekend went by way too fast!
I picked up my love from the airport Thursday night and I was so excited to see him! I met him at baggage claim/passenger pick up area of the airport, and ran as fast as I could and jumped into his arms. It was wonderful to be in his arms and have him hug me so tight. Ok so maybe I'm bragging a bit? Sorry...but he's very special to me and I like talking about him :)
Friday we spent running around town getting last minute things together before the big move. We had lunch at my favorite Mexican food restaurant in town, Mariachi's, and then went to the grocery store to get things we needed to cook dinner for my parents that night. We had a lot of fun cooking together and entertaining my parents when they came over to the house. We all enjoyed amazing "beer can" chicken, sides, and dessert (thank you Pinterest for the dessert recipe). I had every intention of taking a picture of this delicious chicken before we cut into it, but of course that didn't happen. *Sigh* Oh well...I will next time.
Saturday we cooked a big breakfast together, then started boxing up more things in the house. We spent a good part of the day going through things, throwing out things, and even making a trip to the city dump to get rid of unwanted things. Who knew one person could collect so much stuff in one small house?!
Sunday we went to Wal-Mart and got some of those "Space Bags" for more packing. We packed the comforters, clothes, and jackets in these things and they compressed down so nicely. Its amazing how so much stuff can be compressed into such a small area! I've still got quite a few clothes to pack, but we definitely put a dent in things. My parents came over that afternoon to say "see you soon" to Wesley, and then the dreaded time came for me to take him back to the airport. Of course, I cried like a baby. I cried going in the airport, at the check in counter, at security, and leaving the airport. And I cried on the way home. But Wesley is so kind and loving to me. He always tells me everything is going to be ok, and comforts me when I'm crying. However, he will be coming back very soon, and I can't wait for him to be here again!
Until then, though, I must continue packing up boxes. It was so fun having him here to help me box things up. It made the process so much easier! Oh and I must say...my parents came over one night and helped me box things up, too. They should get recognition as well for helping because they did a lot! My Dad is an expert packer, and Mom was a lot of help too!
One more thing...I know that I promised pictures from the weekend, but we didn't even take any! I know...shame on us. I'll get some this next time for sure! And I'll be sure to share them with everyone :)
