Hello from Troutville, VA

Hi friends! I'm in Troutville, VA tonight (North of Roanoke.) Daisy and my husband are sound asleep and I just wanted to drop in and let you know that we left this morning for day one of our move to Manhattan. Our moving truck left yesterday and we are driving my Mom's car to the city so we didn't have to pack all of our valuables in the moving truck (not to mention it made it easier with Daisy.) Last night we had an impromptu going away dinner with a lot of our friends and my younger sister. The day before I left my parents...needless to say there have been a few tears in the past couple days. OK, more than a few. =) But, I'll be fine. I'm nervous and excited about this next phase in my life. I can't believe that tomorrow I will actually be in my apartment (OK, so we'll be sleeping on our brand new purple pillowtop air mattress until our moving van arrives Monday, but we WILL be in our first home.) The next few weeks are going to be exciting and scary and I promise to keep you posted on my progress as a Southern girl learning her way in the big city. I will also keep you posted on Daisy's progress with learning to tee tee on concrete. Oh Lord, this dog has no idea what tomorrow holds for her. What is she going to do when she gets out of the car? What am I going to do? Well, ready or not Manhattan...here we come!

PS. I also have not forgotten that you are dying for more wedding pictures and I promise I'll do lots of wedding posts as soon as this move is over.
