BEST WEEKEND

Hey there,
I just wanted to let you all know I had the best weekend ever. My family and friends thru me a going away party in Olney Saturday night. Which was awesome, I had tons of family and friends there and we had a good dinner, drinks and tons of laughs. We were all able to just sit around and talk. It was really nice. I want to thank everyone who had a part in it, as well as everyone who came. It was totally I night I will never forget...

Then to continue my great weekend, my friends from the Eagles had a cookout yesterday, so I was able to spend the day with all the best guys in the world. We had such an awesome time, again just a great time sitting around hanging out with people. It was amazing.

I will totally never forget my family and friends and all they have done for me this weekend...

I will be in the Charleston and Mattoon area this week, then back to Jasper County on thursday, so if you would like to see me, just give me a call....

love ya

I will leave Mattoon on July 31st at 5:23 am, arrive in Chicago at 9am, then leave Chicago at 2:15 pm and arrive in Seattle at 10:20 am on August 2nd... yes that is over 49 hours on the train with a 5 hour lay over in Chicago....

Then after I get to Seattle I will spend the night there and go to the airport on August 3rd and leave for Alaska that day...... I will arrive in Barrow Alaska the evening of August 3rd.... wow I cant wait...

WOW!!!! its getting really close to time for me to leave.... Scary thought...

I am so excited though...

2 trucks.... 2 girls... what else do you need

Well today was moving day... well atleast from my house in charleston. I had Marks truck, and my Amber T had a Jason's truck.... so I am sure you can guess that it was a very adventurous day... Well to say the least.

We left Olney around 11:30am and returned to my moms house around 6:30pm. Needless to day it was a long, HOTTTT day. but we got almost everything out of my house. Thank goodness. The best part of the day was Jenna using the bathroom along the side of a country road.

Now that I have pretty much everything I own from a house into one bedroom, I cant really move in my bedroom, but soon I will be in an apartment in Alaska and it will be so much better. I hope anyway.

I just cant believe a dream I have had since I was in high school is finally about to come true. In like 22 days I will be on a train to Seattle, where my own personal adventures will start and my new life in Alaska on my own will start. I cant wait. But I am going to miss my family and friends so much. I think now where I am because of my family and my friends and I think how will I make it up there on my own, but everyone that knows me says YES, if anyone can do it you can. I do believe them, I am so strong headed and stubborn, nothing will stop me from what I set out to do.

Ok, now I know everyone who is reading this is saying to themselves, yes that is very true... thank you for agreeing. I know if I set my mind to it, I can do anything.

Well hopefully I will get to see family and friends before I leave on the 31st. But if not, I will keep you updated on my adventures...

love ya
