Well, I'm back in Philadelphia after a nice week in Seattle. It was hard to come back, no offense to Philadelphia but Seattle will always be my home. It just feels right. The week was a busy one and I already shared the first half of it and I wanted to show off some photos I took of the second half.
After my fun day with my girls, I spend the rest of the afternoon with my family. In the evening I had a little surprise for Bobby since it was his birthday. We heading downtown to the Hard Rock Cafe were we met some friends. Bobby knew I was taking him out but didn't know details. I was conspiring against him for a month and even got in contact with one of his friends, Matt who lives in Seattle. I was able to get him to come out and hang with us. We had some good food, great drinks and much needed conversation with some of my favorite people. It was a really great night. Not to forget that my guy got a little bit spoiled :)
Sunday we had a fabulous BBQ at Julee's house with a really great bunch of people. I headed to Julee's early spend some time helping Julee and Glen prep for the day while Sebastian and my little sister Michelle kept each other company. Bobby went out with his friend Matt who took him up flying in his small plane. They even flew close to Julee's house! Julee and Glen live in such a nice house with such a beautiful view so it's always a treat to be there. I got to see a lot my favorite people and just have a relaxing day. Not to forget that my dad and step-mom come along which make me feel all warm and fuzzy.
Even though our trip has over it's nice to know that in about six months we are heading back for good to start our next adventure. I think it was a much needed trip out to get excited for everything this is going to come our way once we move out to Seattle. Big hug and kiss to Julee and Glen who make this trip happen!

We're in SEATTLE! I know. Sneaky Sneaky. My little family and I were gifted tickets to Seattle from two very amazing people, so here we are. It was a surprise because my father had no idea that we were coming. Yesterday we arrived into Seattle at 8:30pm and heading straight to my dads. Thanks Tanya for picking us up :) Needless to say, my dad was extremely surprise and totally caught off guard. Here are a few picture of our first day in Seattle. We plan on making the most out of this visit!
This morning my dad took my sister and I on a coffee date. Of course, we headed to a Starbucks just down the street. I hope to slowly but surly open my families eye up to all the other coffee shops. Small business all the way!!
It's been a very emotional day but in the end we all have to stay strong and be there for the ones we love. So glad that I get to be here to spend some quality time with my family and friends

Now that we've told all our family I wanted to share the news here about our move to SEATTLE! It's been talked about for many months now and slowly we've been sharing the news to our close family and friends. Behind closed doors Bobby and I have been talking about a move to Seattle way before he even proposed to me. It's been on the brain for quite some time.
Moving to Philadelphia for me was something I had to do when I did. I met Bobby and fell in love quick and hard and it was sort of my ticket to get away from some hard times. That moment in my life when I packed my tiny little VW Golf up with all my belongings and started to drive with Bobby by my side away from all that I knew and everyone I loved was something that I will never regret. Even with moving away from my home and losing the ability to create memories with my family and friends, I gained so many other memories equally precious. I've become part of another family who has done so much for me and my little family. Heck, how many of you out there can say you truly head-over-heels love your in-laws? I can!
No doubt it will be hard to leave all these beautiful people here on the East Coast but in no way is it a goodbye more like a see ya later :) I want to live this life with open arms and following our dreams, hopes and hearts. For now I dream of Sebastian getting to know my father. I want him to interact and know the good man my father is. I want Sebastian to learn Hungarian and be around my culture. I want to go to Tony and Guy Hair Academy and becoming a hair stylist and then open up my own hair studio with my little sister. We have many dreams as a family but in the end it's just to be happy and things that we love. Not only all that, I just plain 'ol miss my family. Those dreams wouldn't be at all possible if I didn't have the most supportive husband in all the land! We are always learning new things about each other but one thing that will never change about Bobby is that he will always be right there beside me no matter what. I think he secretively loves my ambitious soul even if I can act all crazy sometimes. Bobby is great and wants our family to move forward and be happy. This move weighs a little less on us knowing that the company Bobby works for is letting him keep his current position so that he can work remotely out in Seattle. Huge deal and makes things easier for us once out there. We plan on staying with my family so that we can save a little money and look for our perfect house in the perfect school district for Sebastian.
So with that being said we are planning this move to happen at the end of this year. We still do not have a set date but hope to lock it down by the Summer. There's lots to plan and organize. We've already started sifting through things and boxing up belongings that can be put away for when we are ready to load up. I'm excited to start the next chapter in our lives and am super grateful for all our family & friends who are here to support and help us.
Here's to new beginnings and fulfilling dreams. Seattle here we come!!
xoxo.
