Let the journey begin!

Here we are...the night before departure!  I feel anything but organized.  My bags are packed, but my mind is all over the place! I'm sure there are things I'm forgetting, things I'll wish I had packed BUT I'll learn to live without whatever those things may be.

There is so much on my mind that I really can't think about what to write.  The last month has been amazing, surrounded by my family and friends, touched by their kind words of encouragement and some of the best going away gifts that I could have ever asked for! 

I am in DISBELIEF that in 5 short hours I will be headed to the airport and on my way to LA.  I guess that means it's time to pack the rest of those last minute things!

Here are some pictures of the last 2 weeks!
