Homeward Bound.

It's finally happening! Our brave and lonely journey to southern Louisiana for the purpose of bettering our lives has finally reaped it's reward. As of September 6th, I can once again proudly say that I am a resident of the great city of Alton, Illinois. (So, no, I didn't get engaged...yet, but this is really exciting anyway!) Words cannot express my angst to get home. I've never been one to stay in one place for long. As a child I attended a different school each school year, and even as an adult I've relocated 3 times in as many years, but ever since I found Alton, (a place I've been traveling through all my life to visit family) I've felt a strong urge to stay there. It's like, well, pepperoni pizza is my favorite kind of pizza, and even though supreme is good too, I would never choose it over pepperoni (unless I was pregnant, but that hardly counts). Even though our time here in Baton Rouge has been fun, I would never stay here if I had the opportunity to move home. Get it?
