What I Wore // my new favorite shirt + a bit on 'Home'

Hi friends, I hope you're having a great start to your week! I got an email not long ago from a follower who is moving to a new city and was sad to be leaving home, she wanted to know how I dealt with leaving my home where I grew up and moving across the states (actually most of you probably don't know that I moved with my family from Delaware to Idaho when I was in high-school:)). I won't go into as much detail here as I did for her, but since I'm wearing my Home T-shirt here, I thought it'd be perfect to share a bit about that!

'Home' means different things to different people of course, but to me it's wherever my heart is , wherever my family is. The important relationships we come to know become home.  I knew I would miss living by the coast when we left Delaware. I missed my friends. I missed the excess of green and all the wildlife everywhere, but I was so excited for the adventures ahead, and the contrast of moving out west to the desert! Not everyone can be so lucky, some people have to leave their homes because of work, or school, or are military families, and some people I know count the days till they'll be able to move back. The best tip I can give is to have an open mind, and keep yourself busy! Find the good if you can and live in the moment instead of holding onto the negative and letting life pass you by:)

Martin and I have big plans of traveling the world when we grow up *wink*, and we may go on extended vacations to exotic or rustic places around the world, but I think that Idaho will always be our home. Both of our parents live here, we met, courted, were married, and started our family here, martin's work is here, and we can hop down to Salt Lake City, or up to Boise for my work at any time, and I don't think we'll ever have a reason to leave!

Well, I should probably quit while I'm ahead, but before I go I just wanted to give you guys the link to where I got this shirt, because it's literally my favorite T-shirt ever! I've worn it more times than I can count, and I always find myself picking it over all my others.haha The home-t people are also incredibly accommodating and awesome to work with, so I hope you get over there and order a couple shirts of your own! I should also add that this post was NOT sponsored by Home T, and that this is my honest-to-goodness genuine opinion.haha
Thanks as always for stopping by, and don't miss tomorrow's post!
