To go back in time a little ways...I was able to spend Thanksgiving with my family back in Virginia. It was such a blessing. I was not anticipating it but God worked it out. It had been almost a whole year since I had been back to visit. It was great getting to see everyone..my baby sisters are getting so big! Not only was my immediate family there but some of my extended family come for the holiday as well. I was also able to visit some of my friends while in town.
My sisters and I had a girls night and sleepover with some girls from church. I stopped by the dance studio and was able to get to see a couple of friends from there. I was able to stop by AMTI (my previous VA job) and visit everyone. It was cool to see most of the same people were still working there and to see the changes that have happened since I moved. I was also able to visit with a family I used to babysit for. I wasn't sure that the girls would remember me but they did. It was so great to see them! They're getting so big too and it was nice getting to visit with them and their parents. Also, my BFF, Megg who moved to NC not long after I moved to CA came up to visit as well. She's expecting her 1st child in March and it was so great getting to see her, her hubby. I also got to meet their dog Skipper...so adorable! Hopefully I will be able to stop by and visit them once the baby arrives in NC.
And then of course I spent lots of time with the family. Had a wonderful dinner with my grandparents one of my first days back. Had girl nights with my sisters. Watched one of the movies I worked on "StarStruck" with them - that was fun. And of course Black Friday shopping. All in all it was such a great visit and definitely miss my family. Wish they all were out here with me! Can't wait to see them all again, hopefully sooner this time than last. I'll post some pictures of my visit soon.
