Prepping
Our last week in Nashville is under way. As part of Kent's relocation package, we have a company coming to pack us tomorrow. Then at the end of the week the moving company will come and load up everything we own to be driven down to South Florida and put into storage.
I have to say that I am thrilled that we don't have to worry about packing all of our shit. The part that sucks is that we do not have a home in Boca yet. We could be in temporary housing for as long as three months sleeping on someone else's bed. Its not a huge deal, but in a life change such as this where everything will be up in the air, it would be nice to have the comfort from your previous life. Your home. I am charged with separating everything we will need for those three months. A small oasis in this new life.
And here is where get the urge to delete the last three sentences. #FirstWorldProblems. There is something special about writing your feelings knowing others will read them. It's called perspective.
The comfort of my previous life that I will have with me on this new adventure is my husband. My husband, whom I have so much fun with. My husband, who has grown to be my best friend. Together we will build a new life in Florida and it will be ok.
Finn is coming too, and who can't find comfort in this face?
I had a wonderful visit from my bestie/sister Drea and her daughter Zoey yesterday. Sweet Zoey. I'm gonna miss not being close to watch her grow up.

Ten
Kent and I gave out tulips as our wedding favors. I was worried we would have to move before they bloomed, but lucky for me the timing was perfect. Here are a few of the photos of our "love tulips".

Catch Up
On September 30th 2012 I married my soul mate, Kent. We had a beautiful outdoor wedding at Historic Cedarwood in Nashville Tennessee. It was everything I wanted it to be.
My good friend Hannah was our photographer and captured so many amazing photos much like the one you see here.
After we were married we went to Kauai for our Honeymoon. What an amazing island! Everything was so beautiful and was a great ending to our wedding.
After we got home and began to settle into married life, Kent was told that due to a reorganization at his current company, he would no longer be employed after the first of the year.
Nashville had become home to both of us. Kent had lived here for almost 15 years and I was going on 6 years. Nashville is where I shed my old skin and had the love and the care to find my new self. Nashville is where Kent and I met and fell in love. Nashville is a part of our story. But now its time to start a new chapter.
Kent got an amazing offer to become the Global VP of Marketing for a sports nutrition company called BSN. BSN is located in Boca Raton Florida which is a place neither one of us ever expected to move to. Beaches, palm trees, and private pools all seemed like elements of a vacation. When we went to visit the area it was clear that although a different path for us, it held a lot of promise. I really believe that Kent can excel and make a difference in his new role. My new role, as wife, has become clearer. I support him and love him in this without thought. It is my duty and gift to him to be flexible and I will do all I can to bring US through this transition with as little discomfort as possible.
Now the countdown begins. 13 days left in Nashville.
