Ember Wins

i asked everyone what my next blog should be about and out of the three responses my cousin September wins.
Me and Nathan have been thinking about moving for quite some time and have narrowed it down to two places. Illinois being our first choice and Colorado being our second. Illinois is our first because i have two different families there that i haven't been able to get to know. i have my dads side of the family that i remember visiting maybe 2 times since i was....i don't know in 5th or 6th grade. i really love that side of the fam. there so loud and friendly and so "let me tell you what i think". and really that's SOOO me, i get it honestly =) they have really seem to stick together over the years and there just one neat bunch! i love them to death and really want my new family (Nathan and the kids) to be raised around such a family oriented environment. than i have my moms side...well kinda. my mom sister Jamie who died when i was two maybe had a son who is now 26. Micheal is an amazing person you just came into our lives a few years ago and has made a huge step moving to Arizona with his boyfriend to get to know us. well his family is my family and I've never had the the opportunity to meet them. I've only heard great things. they seem to be really tight and so helpful to one another.
so many people to get to know and we want to do it soon! this was actually all Nathans idea and it took him a bit to get me on board. not that i wouldn't like to get to know my family but its a little scary. what if their disappointed? what if i don't fit in or we don't get along....then what? but I'm on board now! so far we have been looking at Naperville but not set on it completely, we"ll see. if we move it wont be for a couple years so we have time. a good school system is our number one priority!!!!
