Journey Cross Country

I am a S.L.A.C.K.E.R.! I will post pictures once we get to Miami and I have a little more time... but just a quick update:

-My first Mother's Day was amazing! Spent it with both of our families since we had Jonnie's blessing that day... which was precious... JD is the BEST Daddy!

-I'm officially a COLLEGE GRAD! WOO!

-We bought a new truck! Much needed to drive across country in a reliable vehicle that had lots of room for all our STUFF that I packed for our first 2 month stay in Miami.

-Speaking of... we are currently in the process of driving across country... yesterday we took off from Centerville and ended up in Kearney Nebraska. Today we left from there and ended up in St. Louis Missouri.

--We traveled almost the entire day in a SEVERE STORM and once we got out it followed us to St. Louis and we are now in the middle of the same storm PLUS have a TORNADO watch. SCARY!

-We would have just made things easy and flown to Miami but since Jonnie and I will be hanging out while JD's at practice and workouts all day, I figured I NEEDED a vehicle out there or I would have gone stir crazy!

-Surprisingly, I'm loving the drive out here! It has been so fun to see how different all the states are.... Missouri is SO GREEN and PRETTY! Besides it being so scary with all the rain and hail, I loved the drive today!

-Tomorrow we are leaving St. Louis and ending up in Atlanta. I'm excited to see all the fun new stuff tomorrow!

-This adventure is so much fun already... I love my husband so much and my baby girl as well. She has been the best little traveler and she is growing up by the minute! I know our families are missing her like crazy already... and believe me.. she is missing YOU GUYS as well!! I cried my little eyes out when we left my parents' house on Thursday... I've never been so far away and gone for so long. But it also makes me really sad that our families have to miss these couple months of Jonnie growing up. Thank heavens for the Web Cam my Dad got me for Mother's Day!!

-Well.. there is an update as for now... NOTE TO OUR FAMILIES:
WE MISS YOU.... COME VISIT SUNNY MIAMI:]

I'm so angry with you right now...we live just south of St. Louis and you could have stayed with us or at least come to say hello!! Brock and Jonnie could have met! Hope your time in Miami is fun!! Let us know if you want to stop on the way back!

isnt it hard to leave your family for the first time! This is our third summer so I have gotten use to it, but the first summer we left I bawled like a baby. It is so much fun to get away and just be with your own little family though... You and JD will grow so much closer together. its crazy. Jonnie is adorable!
