Today was a great day! We went to the Zoo and had lots of Pizza, my favorite. I am a woman of simple pleasures. I had some PF Chang's on my own to celebrate my birthday because Matt hates Chinese food but it wasn't as good as I remember. I hate when that happens. I pay money for something that wasn't good. Really, I just want my free Cafe Rio meal. No good Mexican around here.
I also had many visits from cute friends! And surprises left on my porch! We are really sad about moving wards. Mainly of leaving cute friends! We also have a "grandma" here for Joshua and he will be so sad because now he has to sit with us during sacrament. He really does love Grandma Fredline!
I feel so loved from cute text messages from friends and gifts from my husband, gift cards, clothes, and oh, yeah, a HOUSE! Wahoo! Pictures to come once we close, move-in, and finally get settled.
Matt and I will now have moved 12 times since we were married. Three of those have been in TN! Three states, 12 moves, and we are finally planning on putting down some roots! This community we are moving to feels like home and we instantly loved it! I am so grateful for everything and for fabulous friends who are so kind and who I definitely don't want to leave. Maybe they can just move with me? Any takers?

Here is to a new year of being more optimistic and more like my amazing children. They teach me everyday about how to be better.

happy birthday maritza! I have been thinking about you lately! a few days ago I was going through some old boxes of my mom's and in it I found a recipe labeled "maritza's pretzels" and I know it must be a recipe of yours because we have never known any other maritza! and I have been wanting to make them ever since!
