2725 Princeton Court is where it all began. It was my apartment while I attended college and made new friends, it was where my husband asked me to marry him, it is where we spent the first 2 years of our married life, and it is where we brought our oldest daughter home from the hospital. That apartment holds a lot of memories, a lot of very good memories. Our new thing for the day was visiting my old campus and visiting our old place.
I haven't been back to my old campus at CSUMB since I graduated. It was so great to drive around and see the new buildings and see how the campus has changed. It brought back so many wonderful memories. When I graduated and left, I realized I had no memorabilia with my school's logo, and I always planned on going back to change that, so that is what I did. I bought a coffee mug and I sit this morning drinking from it, feeling pretty good. It's almost like it says "Hey, I was there, I graduated, and I rock!" We also took our oldest and showed her where she spent the first year of her life. It brought back so many memories and I couldn't help but tear up, but only because I was so happy to have experienced all that I did. It was a good time a life. It was the first time I was away from home and it really forced me to grow up and experience life as an independent woman. I really grew up those 3 years, and they have helped make me the girl I am today. After touring the campus and our old apartment, we took the kids to a park, and they had the best time climbing trees, laughing and swinging. It was an AWESOME day!
One other amazing thing for the day was after a 4 interview process, my husband was offered a new job. I can not tell you the happiness and relief we feel. It is something he is very excited about and it will allow him to take care of our family. You can imagine the smile on his face. I truly believe this will be one of our best years yet to date!
