Welcome to Raleigh

So I am now living in a small town called Holly Springs near Raleigh, NC. I must say I prefer small town southern living to Las Vegas. The people here are so nice. The pace of life and the workplace is much slower and easier. Even traffic jams have a different feel to them. In Las Vegas it is run over or be ran over, here it is about courtesy and going the speed limit (in most places). Closer to and in Raleigh you will find an almost Vegas like attitude. Out in my small town and near Mindy it has a wonderful peaceful feel.
It is great that Philip and Kelly now live out in Georgia. It is great having some more family within a days drive. Now if only the rest of my siblings would see how wonderful life can be here! (Tapping my fingers and hatching my plan to convince them to move!) I miss my nieces and nephews something fierce.
I do not think they realize how much a part of my life they were before I left. I miss my family so much. Being single and not having any children of my own, it was the closest thing i can come to without actually being married to be around children. Mindy's boyfriend Randy has 2 wonderful children who are such a joy to be around. Here are some photo's of our adventures on Halloween. More photo's to come.
