So I think it is starting to actually hit me that we are moving away from Utah this week.
When people ask me if I like Utah over Michigan it's a fairly quick response that Michigan is better. But there will be a few things I will miss:
-The family we have out here is amazing. It has been great getting to know all of them. I can't believe that Debbie won't be a 15 minute car raide away anymore. It hasn't hit me that I can't just show up there whenever and hang out with the kids.
-The mountains. They are beautiful. Especially if you sit up on a peak or go into a canyon. They really are breath-taking. It will be sad leaving them. I wish I could have both my greenery and the mountains.
-Married Friends. It will probably not happen for a few more years in Michigan since Utah tends to get married quite young. But having married friends has been nice for Landon and I. Leaving them will be a bummer, but I guess that means we can attend weddings in Michigan which is also quite fun.
-Cheaper schooling. Utah universities are so much cheaper than Michigan universities. I just hope that we keep qualifying for a bunch of pell grants and then we can finish school with out anymore student loans. (I took some out before I truly understood them, bad idea. But we should have them half way paid off by the end of the year!)
-5 minutes to Church and 15 minutes to a Temple. Utah is designed for Mormons. Everything is so close and so convenient. It's gonna be harder knowing we need to drive 30-40 minutes to church each Sunday and I believe the closest Temple is about 45 minutes away. Having them closer is such a luxury here in Utah.
I'm sure I could think of more to be grateful about here in Utah, but my tummy says it's time for breakfast and Landon would appreciate if I didn't eat while on the computer....
Have a nice rainy day!
