AWESOME FRIENDS

First of all:  Yeah, yeah, yeaaaaah!

Second of all:  We are officially moving to KC.  Let the frantic planning BEGIN!

Now on to the post.  We seriously have the best friends ever.  I won't be able to count all the ways they are fabulous, but let me give you just a few examples:

*Friends praying for us every step of the way: praying that JJ could get an interview.  Praying that JJ could get in somewhere.  Praying that JJ COULD GET INTO UND!  Praying for our move.

*Friends offering sympathetic ears -- lots of big changes and some friends have "been there, done that".  Sometimes I just need those positive pushes to get me out of an "oh woe is me" attitude.

*Friends bringing over boxes.  Yahoo!  Let the packing continue!

*Friends offering to help pack said boxes -- which I declined (I'm sick of packing!  Let's go for a walk instead!)

*Friends offering to watch the Chooch Monster -- Daddy's new nickname for her... kinda has stuck -- while I pack said boxes.

*Friends offering to load aforementioned packed boxes into our van, car, uhaul (penske?  budget truck?), and truck.

*Friends OFFERING TO MOVE US TO KC, which includes the use of their truck.  Oh, we love you so much TL and LL.  Can I tell you more about TL?  He's accepted to attend UND Med School and found out he is also in at U of M.  He basically straight out asked JJ if he moves to U of M, would that mean that JJ could get in - if it would - he would sacrifice for JJ.  Makes me emotional just thinking about it.   Oh, and that also tells you how awesome of a candidate he is!  Go TL!

Seriously.  We have the best friends.
