We woke up around 11am in the park. The weather was cold, our bed was warm and it seemed impossible to get moving but we were anxious to go see PJ (Jordan's childhood friend from Lake Arrowhead), Shelby (his wife), and their son Cole (who we have never met yet and he is two!). We made our coffee, looked around the beautiful park that was way less creepy in the morning, then headed for Copperas Cove, Texas. I took the wheel for the first shift but ended up falling in love with the drive there so I never gave it up! We took some back country highways through Mason and Llano County. I could not stop smiling the entire time. I think I could have stopped right there and been content with my life. Rolling green hills, scattered oak trees, cows and sheep wandering, big brick houses, old barns, train bridges, lakes and rivers. Everything I could dream of a home was right here. Destiny cruised at her own pace and the people of Texas were very understanding and friendly. I got some waves, smiles, and hat nods. Every part about this day made my heart so full. It was only a couple hour drive so we just powered through it and got to PJ's as fast as we could!

Jordan, Shelby, Cole, Me, and PJ. It has been incredible being with them again, it's like we've never been a part. Cole has been amazing to us, climbing up on our laps, hugging and playing, and being absolutely adorable. PJ and Shelby even asked us if we would be his God parents! Such an incredible honor, we were stoked! |
