Worth every minute!

We spent this past Wednesday night and early Thursday morning making the long haul to West Palm Beach. It was a 16 hour drive, but to me well worth it!
We arrived on Thursday morning around 9ish. We were able to check-in early to our hotel and grab a much needed nap! Dennis and me split the trip up, but we were still very sleep when we got into West Palm. After our nap we headed out and grabbed some supplies and food for a picnic. We made our way to Juno Beach, which was quiet, kind of secluded, and unspoiled. Juno is a sea turtle sanctuary and pet friendly beach. It was nice having much of the beach to ourselves as it wasn't over-crowded like Ft. Lauderdale at all. Also, there were tons of sea shells!
Dennis had his interview on Friday morning, so we got up early and got ready for the day. While he was in the interview, I explored and drove around to get used to the traffic and general flow of the area.

After his interview, we met up with our realtor and looked at homes in Parkland, Coral Springs, and Coconut Creek. We may have found one!
Things seem to be falling into place, which is something we have prayed for all summer!

Friday night was all about some DMB! We volunteered for the Carbon Off-Set Program and were able to raise money towards those efforts. Dave's tour is completely green. They use reusable water bottles and bio-diesel fuel to name a couple of things that make me love them even more! We got awesome t-shirts to wear while working which people constantly wanted to buy from us. Nope! Not a chance! The show was amazing! We heard a new tune 'Black Jack' which I now adore! Best of all the show was free!!!!

On Saturday we headed back out to look at homes again. We headed back to Memphis Saturday afternoon and ended up at home about 7:45am today. We are exhausted. But, I wouldn't change a thing (except maybe being able to see Dave on night 2 in West Palm :).

Hopefully now that the house is on the market and Dennis has this interview under his belt, we will be hearing good things within the next month! We were sad to leave, but cannot wait to head back with the kids and settle in Southern Florida soon!!!!!!
