Goodbye is better than Bad bye

  What an awesome weekend we had! I can not believe we are moving in 11 days. How does time fly so fast??? Today was the absolute best day. We had our going away party, and it was so nice to say goodbye to the family we will be leaving behind. I am really starting to realize how sad it will be when we do move, and we have to leave most of our family and friends behind. Such an amazing adventure ahead of us, yet such awesome California family and friends behind us. (Not that they're really behind us, everyone is a Skype call away!). Here are some snap shots taken today at the party:

The boys! Jake in the middle, his 2 brothers, Dad, and Grandpa

Goof-ball little brother-in-law

My Jacob and I

Little sissy and I. Everyone says we look exactly alike just opposite features.

CAPRESE! SO beyond delicious

 Only a couple ingredients in this delicious Salad.

Fresh Mozzarella
Tomatos
Basil
Balsamic Vinegar
EVOO
salt and pepper

Layer your ingredients, drizzle with EVOO and balsamic, sprinkle with s&p and DEVOUR!

How precious is this? Baby and Dad holding hands

Some of the ladies, Jakes grandma, Mama, my grandma, Mama, and sister. (Oh and Kaedyn in the middle!)

 Aren't they all gorgeous? those are some good Genes!

  It was a perfect day for a BBQ and everyone had such an awesome time.  As usual, I wish I had taken more pictures, but these are the only ones I snapped. 

  As I mentioned earlier, only 11 measly days until we move. This is both Mine and Jakes last week at work, and we still need to paint our house, clean the carpets, and get everything in order for the movers who come next Wednesday. Do you ever feel like your to-do list is so long, its probably best if you just ignore it all together?? I totally do. So I have for the most part, and that's getting me nowhere, that's for sure. Nothing is going to get done tonight either, New Jersey housewives are on, and nothing tastes better with some fiery Italian drama than some Pinot Noir and my PJS! 

  Sorry if these posts have been laggin' lately, i'm workin on some really great stuff for the blog, and of course the road trip is coming up so you KNOW there will be some stories to spill on that. In the meantime, enjoy this picture of my sleepy little lovebug from this morning :)

be still my heart :)
