Our Journey to SC

Elijah and I made the long trip to South Carolina this morning. We've been packing the house for the last several days and since we had nothing left, we stayed with the Dearmon Family last night. Brandi picked us up in our empty home and took us into hers for the evening. It was so fun getting to spend time with them on our last Oklahoma night. Elijah was having a hard time, understandably so, but he really enjoyed hanging out with Bella and his girlfriend, Maci. He is definitely going to miss those beautiful girls. We've been so blessed to have so many wonderfully amazing friends/families to share these past years with in Lawton. Despite it not being a great town, we have been blessed in friendships.

A special thanks to the Dearmon Family for taking us in, getting up at 4:00 a.m. to take us to the airport, getting out in the rain to help unload our 5 or 6 pieces of luggage and carry-on, and for keeping it together so I didn't sob in the middle of the airport. We love you all so very much and look forward to the next time we see one another.
