Our family is about to take the journey of a lifetime. In 3 weeks we will leave everything we know here in California and travel 3,000 miles away to start a new life adventure in Shelburne Falls/Buckland MA. We will be relocating for a bunch of reasons but to sum it up: I need a change. I have never lived in one place (since I was 10) for more than 3 years. Living in Sacramento CA, was my longest stint- nearly 5 years. In that time I met the man of my dreams, started and finished our family with the birth of 2 beautiful daughters, and learned who I am and what I want out of my life. The life that I want (actually I should say we since this is a collaborate effort of both Daniel and myself) does not include living in CA. We want to be free to live at a slower pace, spend our days exploring outside, have my husband not work 8-5 with a 40 min commute.
This new change is going to be amazing. I see it as a year adventure, because as of now we only have a 1 year lease on a house so we will see how it goes and see where we end up. I plan on working on my self awareness and my physical health. I am so excited for this period of change and I cannot wait to see how much my girls will grow and change along the way as well!!!!!
I leave in 19 days to start the drive across the country with our dog and our cat and my good friend Anna. Daniel will meet us in MA with the girls, but they are going to fly because that will be the easiest route for the 2 toddlers!
I will write more later of my intentions of the move but right now I need to get these girls in the bath!
