Trip to PA

Going back to my high school roots. I moved from PA when I was almost done with my jr year of high school. I moved during the 2002 Olympics, and have only returned once, in 2003...yep, 6 years ago! My best friend, Anna Margaret got engaged this year and I decided it was time to head back to good ol' Lewistown for her special day. I had a blast! Unfortunately, my camera batteries died, so I didn't get many pictures of me with my friends, but here are a few of my trip.
This trip meant a lot to me. I think living in Utah is great, but I am surrounded by good people and goodness. Don't get me wrong, that is a great thing! I think lately I have just been wrapped up in the overwhelming stresses of life and forgetting all that I have. I was a little nervous to head back, afraid that I wouldn't fit in anymore. I am not the only one married, but I was the only one there with kids...two! To my great surprise, I fit right back in, and felt very welcome and loved.
Talking to people and talking about Ricky, Kassi and Tyler also made me realize how beautiful my life really is, and how much I am blessed. Too bad others had to point it out to me, but I'm so glad they did! I am so grateful Ricky supported me going, and that my mom was able to come and help out with the kids so I could have that break to go back. It really was a trip I will cherish forever!
