Happy Reunion


Due to the nature of my dad's job, we moved around a bit growing up. I can remember six neighborhoods and many wonderful neighbors. My folks made numerous friends and thus I can remember tearful goodbyes and promises of reunions. Recently I've experienced the opposite side of moving.


Jess and I have been in this little neighborhood for about a year and a half. We've met and gotten attached to some dear folks. About a month ago two of our neighborhood pals moved out of the 'hood. (Trading their 'apartment' for larger accomodations.) Tonight they hosted a festive gathering and ornament exchange. A good time was had by all.


Cheers, Jose & Chason! Your home is lovely. We miss you 'round here but we are happy for you both! Not sure how long I'll continue to call the house on the corner yours. (Maybe a decade?) It's nice to know you're just down the road.

We were so happy to see everyone!! We miss all of you terribly. There is something to be said for having wonderful neighbors. We will definitely have to stay in touch and get together often.
Jose came to bed last night and said, "I called the townhome an apartment. I hope I didn't offend anyone." In Puerto Rico they call everything that is attached apartments. I hope he didn't offend anyone either! I think I have corrected him about that for the past 2 years. Oh well, so much for correcting him!!
I hope you guys have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!
