It's also been very difficult being away from family. I never realized just how much we depended on that support. I will never take for granted always having a babysitter in California that is for sure! Our children have a connection with our families there that is unlike any other, and it's become so difficult hearing our eldest son Blake ask to go home almost every day this entire year. When we told the kids we were moving back they were so excited the first thing they wanted to do was call Grandma and Papa. Not to mention they are totally in love with my niece Alara who I am missing sooooo bad! My brother and sister also live in California as well as the rest of my grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and two of Garett's siblings, so we have a huge amount of family there. Garett and I are also so very excited because you know California is home to us, even though Garett was born and raised here he has really taken to California as well. He misses his Mom and Dad (who also live in California) like any adult kid would.
I am so thankful for the friends I've made and for getting a chance to meet some of Garett's family here. So very thankful we got to be here recently for Garett's grandfather's passing, I will never regret this move because of that.
So now it's time to move back home and I am so happy we still own our home in California as I don't want to live anywhere else. It's like restarting an old journey but the right journey, and I can honestly say I don't ever want to move out of state again lol unless our families are moving with us.
Anywho just thought I would break the news to everyone, the big move will happen end of next month I can't wait! I will miss you Texas, but I am sure we will come visit sometime.
My studio will also be closing of course and my last event there will be the Gypsy Ball once we get the new dates settled. Thank you everyone for following our crazy journey!

God Bless Marion. You will always be thankful and grateful that you made the journey, but, it's always nice to go home.
This was pleasant to read Marion. Im happy that you are happy. Maybe you can open your Studio in Cali ?? This past FEB we took a trip to San Diego and I fell in love with the visit. So want to go back !! God Bless and HapPy moving !!
So bittersweet... God Bless Marion.
Marion, But I didn't get to come down to visit you, yet. I'll save the best for last. Lol. I have been wanting to visit your studio for a long time. I can completely understand how home sick you must all be. There is nothing like the support from family and while having young ones especially, you need that support more than ever. You are so very talented and I know you will be very successful, wherever your heart may take you. Best of luck, Laura Strack
Best of Wishes, I think many people have moved away and then back again. Family is so very important.
So happy you are coming back to California! I've lived all over the world, but home is where family is for sure! <3 Big hugs, Karen
