Mr. & Mrs. Nielson

This isn't fully related to my journey to Seattle.

However, it has given me a new perspective on the love of family.

Cjane (Courtney)'s sister, Nie, and her husband were in a private plane crash on August 16, 2008.

She has since been taking care of their children as well as her newborn.

She has also been faithfully updating her blog, as well as her sister's blog.

This is the true love of sisterhood.
Isn't family amazing?

You're an inspirational and beautiful person Courtney!

God Bless & I hope all turns out for the best!
The Nielson family, as well as yours, are in my prayers.

Goodbye small town, hello big world.

Thus, it begins.

I finish my last day of work on Friday.

Then it's two weeks of packing & volunteering for an art class at the High School.

Then it's bye-bye small town Libby and hello huge Seattle.

Honestly, I cannot wait.

I'm beyond thrilled at my opportunity at this experience.

Who knew that a girl from a small town could make it to such a big place.

I'm excited for all the new people I'll meet, new things I'll learn, and for my new surroundings.

I'm also excited to begin classes.

I've heard a lot of great things about the Professors & I cannot wait to experience the proof.

Goodbye small town, hello big world.
