Home sick...

Tonight my hubby is having a boys night at one of his friends houses which Im totally okay with, it just has got me thinking. I really miss my friends that Ive had for years and spent so much time growing up with. I really had some AWESOME friends and its sad how ive totally failed at keeping touch. Im probably the worst ever at remembering to call people back or even text, let alone making the initiative to get together with friends. But to all of my old friends who read my blog...I miss you...and i truely hope your doing wonderfully.

I never thought id say i missed good ol' show low but i sorda do. I miss fresh air...i miss the "slow" life...i miss knowing almost everyone in town...dirt roads and trucks. It was "home" for so long and i dont even know when ill ever be there again. Its hard sometimes living here in the valley where my husband grew up...he still has all his old buddys, all his family, and everything familiar in his life that hes always had. Ive had to "adjust" and sometimes its hard. I want so badly to run to my mommys house everytime spencer is gone, I want to have "girls nights" with my friends from highschool, i wish my backyard was "woods" and i could jump on my quad and run away from it all and maybe spot an elk :). I miss camping SO bad...fishing and quad riding...smelling like camp fire and laughing with my family...my family is SERIOUSLY funny.

Im a country girl at heart and I dont think ill ever be a "valley" girl. But dont get me wrong Im VERY blessed here in gilbert arizona. The weather right now is perfect though im afraid to say that the heat is creeping up WAY too quickly. I love my new home...its perfect for us in almost every way. I LOVE having stores at my fingertips...though its not soo good at times either haha. My husbands family has been a huge blessing in our lives and its nice having them nearby. Its a perfect place for us to be while spencer is going to school and were still trying to figure things out.

Its funny how even though im PERFECTLY happy right now with my life and everyone in it, i still miss those "old" things. Memories never leave you...especially good ones. Hopefully these memories im making right now ill forever cherish and miss as the years fly by. I think its good to miss and remember the "past" sometimes...
