I am here

Yep.  I arrived late last night in gorgeous Albuquerque, New Mexico.  I am ready to move here. It is absolutely wonderful.  

Sike.

Had you going right?  Admit it.  I had you going. You probably cheated and read ahead, but regardless, let's get one thing straight "This place is not so fabulous."  uh. uh.  Unless I meet Julia tomorrow, which can still happen people, then, only then, I would consider relocating. She must live in the really "special" part of New Mexico that I have yet to see. 

Really, though, this is no Salt Lake.  Salt Lake AAA was the Sheraton beds, decent shopping (there was a nordstrom), I found the Chick-fil-A, cool downtown.  You know the drill. Albuquerque (which by the way, I hate having to type and spell over and over, so let's  call it ABQ..a little airport code for ya) is kinda like a bad Arizona.  We love the desert, but this...nothing to love. No offense, Randy, I know your gonna give me some slack about this particular blog...

So, let's focus on the positive...Dallas.  I got to see my honey!  Oh, It was wonderful. It has only been 2 weeks, but we really have not been apart in forever. 2 weeks was a lifetime.  I landed at 11:30 and he had just landed from Denver at 11, so it was perfect.  Got the bags, got the car and headed to the hotel.  We stayed up talking like teenagers (these are the references you can make when your 30) and laughed all night.  He is my best friend. Such a cliche, I know.  I'm sure a few of you just barfed a little, but it's true.  I found my soulmate. 

I can't wait to see him play tonight.  He has been doing great.  I think he is enjoying baseball again.  He has made so many new friends.  It is a blessing that he is with this team.  His roommate is from Alabama and other close friend is a Georgia boy (you know he's good people). His wife is preggo with a girl due in July.  Sound familiar?  God is awesome. He places people in our lives for a reason.  I am so glad Dallas is enjoying his teammates.  Don't get me wrong, he'd rather be with the big fish (pardon the pun), but this is good for him.  The stadium here is very cool. It is huge and maybe the best minor league ballpark I've seen. They get a larger crowd than the big leagues...doesn't say much for the marlins, but they get 8,000 a night. Crazy! Don't worry, I will snap some pics of the place. No need for you to travel to ABQ, I'll bring it and all it's glory to the comfort of your living room.  

I have to apologize for the absence of my reesie cup.  I actually took shots of her yesterday especially for you, but in the midst of packing and running around I was unable to get them posted.  Please forgive me.  I promise to shower you with pics of the baby girl next week.  I'll make it up to you...  I am missing her terribly. Her and Meme are social butterflies.  They are all over the place.  When I called this morning they were exercising and having a grandma play date at the park.  So funny....

Time to go, gotta run and get ready before the game.  Bbbbrrrr...it's gonna be cold tonight. Can't wait to hang with Dallas after the game.  It's like old times....staying up late, hanging out,talking in the restaurant, renting a movie. 

I do miss my girl so much.  Daddy is miserable without his cup. We are sending Reesie a big kiss right now...

Happy Friday all!
