Top 10 Lists

In one week from now all of our belongings will be packed in a truck and we will be ready to leave Albuquerque.  In honor of our one-week countdown here is a list of the top ten reasons we will miss New Mexico and the top ten reasons we are excited about moving to North Carolina.  They are in no particular order, but are numbered just to make sure I actually get ten of each.  Here we go!

Top 10 Reasons Bobily Will Miss New Mexico
10. Luminarias
9. Our Dogs (we are leaving Zeppelin and Oscar with an awesome family, but it's sad to part with them)
8. Food (Green Chile, Dion's, Weck's, etc.)
7. Dry climate
6. Mountains
5. The sunsets
4. Friends
3. Our first home

Top 10 Reasons Bobily Is Excited About Moving to North Carolina

7. Green
6. Black people (ask Emily)

I see a contradiction: You'll miss the dry climate, but you're looking forward to humidity?
How do you know your church will be earlier--have you found a house?!
And PLEASE provide an explanation about #6 on the NC list...

Good luck getting everything ready to go!

The humidity is nice because we won't have to worry about dry, cracked skin, but the dry climate is also nice because the summers are much more bearable.
