May and June 2013

Whooaaaaa! It's been over a month since my last post! How the heck did time go by so fast?! Well, I'm happy to say that I've made strides in my personal life this past month. I made a big move, started a new job, and have been embracing life with an open, thankful heart. It's never been so satisfying.

I now work right near the Ocoee River in southeast Tennessee. It's so refreshing being by the mountains and rivers... nature's beauty definitely puts things in perspective.

This past week I drove to Manchester, TN, (near Nashville) to volunteer at Bonnaroo, a huge 4-day music festival. This year it sold out, with over 80,000 tickets sold. The best part about it? (well... there's more than one...) I got in for free! Yep- volunteers get free tickets! I met the most amazing people living in the volunteer camping area. It was SUCH a fun time of community and great music.

And now I'm in the Atlanta area to visit my mom and Alex. It's Packing Central here, as there's less than 3 weeks left before the Big Move!  Here are some pics from the past few weeks! :)
