Excited because we were moving to a place I have never been to and sad because I was leaving behind my friends. I quickly got my laptop to search for my soon to be home! There were so many exciting places; restaurants, movie theatres, museums, parks, old churches, and so many more. The night before our moving day, I could not sleep a wink.
