Indy, How you doin'?

All the feels are going to be in this post. Fair warning.

North Carolina has been a true home to us for almost two years. We've been blessed to meet so many incredible people. With the McCall clan being so far from family, we miss a lot of holidays, family dinners, outings, etc. In the most amazing way our friends in North Carolina have turned into family themselves. So again, we must leave family by trusting the Lord and what He has planned for our family.

When we first arrived in North Carolina, Chris and I were unsure of how quickly we would make friends (Let's be honest, we all have that middle school insecurity when it comes to these things). However, in no time at all, we did. Eventually, these friends became family and leaving family is never easy. It's bittersweet. We'll miss the jokes, weddings, concerts, new food places, holiday hangouts, shenanigans, pool days, mall time, and most importantly, the people themselves. Everyone here in North Carolina has made such an impact on our family and there aren't enough ways to say, "Thank you." In the best ways possible and without us or them knowing, the people of North Carolina have been preparing us for this new journey in Indiana.

Honestly, it hasn't really hit me yet that we're moving. I've said goodbyes to people at work; I've been packing incessantly for days now, but it still hasn't hit me yet. On some level I think it's because I know how much I'll miss it here and don't want to fully accept that I'm leaving so many great people behind.

"You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart will always be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place."

Indiana, you're next. We're coming your way. Be prepared to be treated like family, because family doesn't end in blood.
