If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them. ~Henry David Thoreau

Whirlwind
Matt and I are preparing for quite a bit in this month of June. Matt's family comes into town next Thursday, He graduates next Saturday, we have a rockin' grad party next Sunday, and two weeks later.... we move back to Portland! Wow! I am so overwhelmed right now... but also have a lot of excitement in my heart.
I cannot believe it's been almost three years since we've been married and moved to the Midwest... it's crazy. At times it has felt like hell, and at this moment, I don't know if I am emotionally prepared to leave those I have grown to love and adore in this funny city. Just thinking about leaving them makes me want to cry.
With all of this in mind, I undoubtably know that much promise lies ahead for us. Our family is growing (Julie and Derek are having a baby!), Matt's career is blooming, and we can finally rest for awhile. Living in transition is challenging and the past three years have been "temporary." We look forward to not have temporary conditions anymore.
Wish us luck... and I will post many neat photos!

I am thinking of you guys a lot these days. I am praying for you as you undergo all these change. Selfishly I am overjoyed at the aspect of only being a short commuter flight away from you soon, but at the same time I really how hard it is to change and leave everyone you have grown to love there. I love you guys!!!!
