Missing Wisconsin

So it's been awhile since my last post. Yes, I have a very hard time with this blog thing. But, I am trying to be better. So here is a post of something that has been on my mind.

For those of you that know me, the title of this post may shock you. I know! It shocked me too. But I really have been missing Wisconsin. I never thought I'd say that. 

In May 2012 Jared graduated from dental school. We found some job options in Albuquerque, NM and decided to give it a try. I was pretty excited to move. Get away from the cold and humidity. But when the time came, I was really sad. It was really hard leaving our first home together and to say goodbye to all our friends. We made a lot of really good memories in Wisconsin. But we are looking forward to the future and making new memories in a new home. 

But, here are a few things I am missing most...

- The tree lined streets. In summer the trees were gorgeous, green. In fall the changing leaves were spectacular. And in winter after a snow storm, it really felt like a wonderland.

- All the green. I don't mind the desert of ABQ, but in Wisconsin, the grass was perfectly green without a sprinkler system.

- The festivals and fairs. Ok Chocolate Fest was a bit of a let down. But there were many other good ones!

And the best of all... State Fair!

- Our house. It was 100 years old and it had issues, but it was a good house.

- The Cottage. Yes, we will visit the cottage in the years to come, but it was so nice to live so close and be able to head "Up North" for the weekend. 

- And most of all... We miss our friends! Love you all!
