Saying Goodbye

Wednesday was a bitter-sweet day. Matt had his going away party - which was fun and quite thoughtful. But at the same time it was sad because we said goodbye to many people. They had a pizza party and gave him a growler, signed by the quality staff.  Quite a thoughtful gift, I thought.  :)

Before taking Matt to the airport, we were able to cram in dinner at Ann Arbor. We realized yesterday that our life here in Ohio has been full circle. Our first getaway trip was to Ann Arbor and we went to the same Italian restaurant we went to yesterday. It still was one of the best meals of my life!

Our view - this time we got to sit upstairs and it was a very relaxing, very yummy meal - as I had remembered!!!

Afterwards, I took Matt to the airport and while driving home I caught up with my good friends, Jen and Seth.

So it's official - Matt has moved to North Carolina. I'm about a month behind. Our target move date is the first weekend in December, but nothing has been solidified yet. I still have a few commitments here and since we technically have no home to move into, I'd rather be in Ohio and soak it up before moving on to the next location. Matt will be living out of a hotel until we officially own the house.
