It has already been 7 months since we moved from Dallas! So crazy how time flies so quickly!! On some days, it feels like we just left the Big D. Others, it feels like we never left East Texas to begin with.
The lifestyle back in East Texas is so nice and unbelievably family friendly. A long night for Jared at the office means that he is still home by 6:00 and people literally walk the aisles in the grocery store to see if you need help!
We have started to meet some great people and are beginning to feel more plugged in. "Being settled" is actually a phrase that we feel we can now use. But don't ask me how many walls still need something hung on them, how many rooms need curtains, etc.! Gosh, I forgot how long it takes for all of that to get done!
Being so near family is such a blessing. We love that we can easily go see grandparents and cousins for the day. In fact, Jared's mom and husband are coming over for dinner tonight, just because. Well, of course, it is to come see Davis :) But we absolutely love it! Here are just a few pictures of Davis enjoying some impromptu time with grandparents over the last couple of weeks.
Cuddling with Lovey (Jared's mom)
Playing with Papa B (Jared's dad)
Paw Paw (my dad) gives Davis his first driving lesson
But, we definitely miss our favorite Dallas restaurants, our church home, and most importantly, our beloved friends!
Jared and I definitely count our blessings daily. So much to be thankful for! Especially a little monkey that's crawling around everywhere :)
Until next time!
