Member Spotlight-Holly Lacey
I was born in San Diego but I grew up in Lodi (just south of Sacramento.) I moved back here for college at UCSD and have basically lived here ever since. My husband Matt and I met in January 2010, were married in September 2011, had Keira in November 2012 and had Tanner in May 2014. What a whirlwind 4.5 years! Just when life seemed to be settling down...Matt accepted a job with his company in Houston. We will be moving sometime in the next 3 months. So, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone for your friendship. It took me a long time to find "mom friends" and I only wish I had found you all sooner. (I'm so glad I can tell you this here because if I tried to tell you in person I might start crying at the park.) The kids and I will still be around for at least a couple months and when we visit I will have to crash a meetup to see how fast everyone is growing up. Thanks again for the friendship, laughs and entertainment.
