Our little family has moved to the great state of Texas for the
next four months! We have only been here a few weeks, but already have fallen
in love with this state! We are living in a place called Fairview, which is
about 40 minutes north of down town Dallas. And if we were to move here, and
had a lot of money, this would be the place I would want to live! Ha.
The best part of it all is that we are living with my aunt Lori,
uncle Britt and my cute cousin Gracie. And I can’t forget their 2 brown labs
Hallie and Henry and their cat Max! They have such a beautiful home! And Dan’s
favorite part would for sure be the pool! It has been so much fun being able to
spend so much time with them! They are the nicest/funniest/most fun people
ever.
We came here because Dan is doing an administrative internship at
the Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital of Plano. He is absolutely loving it and
learning so much! He is planning on starting his Masters next fall in Hospital
Administration. My uncle Britt is the CEO of Texas Health Presbyterian of
Dallas! He has been such an amazing mentor for Dan and a huge reason Dan has
decided to go into this field.
The only downside to living outside of Utah is that I usually have
no idea where I am going! I do not understand how anyone gets around here
without a gps. It boggles my mind. I honestly don’t even know which way is
north or south. Surprisingly enough, I can actually go to a few places now
without using our gps. I told Dan the other day that I totally feel like a
local because of it! haha.
While Danny is at work all day every day Jack and I have a blast
exploring our new town! Although there are some days that the only thing I get
accomplished is showering and bathing Jack, our days usually consist of long
walks/jogs through the BEAUTIFUL neighborhood, cleaning, going to the park to
swing (Jack loves it!), sitting outside by the pool, running random errands,
going to cool stores with my aunt Lori, reading, making dinner and if there is
time, taking naps. It seriously feels like we are on vacation.
My aunt Lori is a blast. She has taken me to so many amazing
stores. It is a good thing I don’t have a house to decorate or else I would
want to buy everything! I have absolutely loved getting to know her better and
spending so much time with her!
To sum it up, we absolutely love it and are so grateful to be
here. We obviously miss our family and friends in Utah, but this is such a
great experience/opportunity for our little family. We love living with the
Berretts! And maybe someday we will officially become Texans!
