Leaving on a Jet Plane....Well, Not Really. We'll Be Going By Car!

Well....it's official! We are moving to Tulsa! Khalid got a new job going back into civil service. Actually he is going into federal service this time. He will still stick with the Reserves as well. When he took the job he has now this past January, his plan was to get some really good experience, eventually get promoted and then be able to get back into civil service at a higher rank. This was his five year plan. However, he was promoted the month after Maya was born which was the biggest blessing! He started just keeping his eyes peeled for opportunities in Tulsa and OKC and lo and behold....well, you know the rest of the story! We are so thrilled because we both love Tulsa. But I am really experiencing every emotion in the book. I cried my eyes out when I first found out because my sister has become one of my very best friends. We get together a couple times a week and the little ones just adore each other. I know, I know....it's only an hour and a half away. Sometimes change is just hard. At the same time, I am SO SO SO excited to live close to my mom and dad! And other friends and family! Basically I am feeling every emotion in the book except for anger. We put our house on the market Thursday so I am crossing my fingers and praying!!
Here are a few pics from the past week.

Maya's first time in a shopping cart without the car seat! Big girl :) She loved it!
She was SUCH a trooper while Mommy and Daddy did Christmas shopping!

Maya and her cousin Zoey, who is one month younger. Such sweeties!!!

Maya and Daddy time!

I made my first wreath! I am quickly becoming a craft-addict!
