Our move to Dallas is just under two weeks away! The days are just flying by, and we are in the thick of deciding what to get rid of, what to have the movers pack for storage, and what we'll need while we're in temporary housing.
Temporary housing. That's another beast. We had originally been told that N's company would provide temporary housing until we found a house. It turns out that they will not, and so we have to find a place to live in less than two weeks. Any of you have Dallas connections?
Anyway.
As our move date draws closer, we have been trying to be as intentional as possible about spending time with friends. We had Tanya over for dinner this past Wednesday night. She brought these scrumptious miniature pears from the tree in their backyard. Little B just loved having his very own, perfectly-sized pear to eat. He kept asking for "More? Pey? More?"
N and I have known Tanya for almost as long as we have lived in upstate New York. When we first met her in 2007, she was just one of the teens in our church youth group. Over the years, our relationship has grown, and now, we cherish her as one of our sweetest friends in New York.
So here is a photo tribute to a dear friend who we will miss greatly when we leave. We'll be holding you to your promise to come visit us, Tanya!

Summer 2010: Tanya gave us our very first baby gift for Baby B. She took me out to lunch and to get a pedicure (the second in my entire life) when I was having a rough pregnancy day.
She was also either the first or second friend to meet B after he was born. |

Little B just LOVED Tanya, who was one of his very first babysitters. |

WE LOVE YOU and WE'LL MISS YOU, TANYA!
