Well, friends. The big day is almost here. The day that David, HDawg, Tucker and I pack up our beloved little house and move into a rental home closer to D's job.
We are so excited.
We are also so sad to leave our sweet house. There are so many memories in these walls... it's the first home that we owned together, the place with the walls (and floors and ceilings and everything in between!) we invested so much time and energy in and the house we brought our sweet baby H home to.
It's not easy to leave what feels like so much behind. But, instead of being sad, I'm going to take my own advice and remember that the house itself isn't what makes a family, but, rather, "what I love most about my home is who I share it with."
David and I are very excited to start this new chapter in our lives and, of course, to share it with all of you! So wish us luck as we move this weekend. Hopefully we're ready! I forgot how much fun moving is... umm, said no one, ever. I'm pretty much drowning in bubble wrap at this point! HDawg is ready to flex his guns and do some heavy lifting, but if any of you want to come help, I pay in margaritas.
Have a great weekend!
Happy moving!
ReplyDeleteMoving is tough, physically and emotionally when you love your house. But onto the next chapter! Good things are to come, for sure. And hey -- great excuse for lots of margaritas!

Best of luck to you guys! I know it will be amazing! Can't wait to see what you do to your next home! :) And if I lived closer, I would totally take you up on the magaritas for work! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck Michelle. I know you guys will be so happy being closer in.
ReplyDeleteHappy moving weekend. Praying for a smooth move! You will love it, I'm sure. xoxo
ReplyDeleteYuck,...I hate moving! If we were around I would send Matt up there to help! Good luck and I can't wait to see the new place!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the move! It's never fun, or for me. No matter how prepared I always think I am, it never goes smoothly. haha But hoping your move is the best!! :)
ReplyDeleteGOOD LUCK!!! Can't wait to see this new adventure unfold!!
ReplyDeleteMargaritas sound awesome! Unfortunately, I live pretty far from you, but I will be there in spirit. Cannot wait to see your new diggs. Wishing safe travels and safe moving :)
ReplyDeleteI hope your move goes sure smoothly. I have no doubts that this is bittersweet. But I know there will be countless memories to come. Think. It will be hard to move from your next house, too. Every house becomes a home because of your family.
ReplyDeleteWoo woo! Good luck!! Very exciting---and I am sure bitter sweet! Hope everything goes smoothly!
ReplyDeleteOh, best wishes for a smooth move, Michelle! Hope the weather cooperates ~ just think of all the memories you've documented so beautifully on your blog.
ReplyDeleteHugs!

The sticker in your planner is epic. How has no one mentioned that??
ReplyDeleteGood luck tomorrow, I know it's sad leaving, but I'm almost 100% sure you won't look back when you shut that door! On to new beginnings :)
I just discovered your blog a few weeks ago, and I love all your creativity! We have totally gutted and remodeled our home over the last two years, and we're going to have to move in the near future since our jobs are pretty far away now from our house. I'm imagining what it will be like to leave this home we've put so much love into! Best of luck with your move!
ReplyDeleteToday is national margarita day! seriously. Good luck, lovebug!! So excited for your little family!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great move! Commuting is no fun, this is a step in the right direction for sure! Wish I was there to help with the unpacking! :)
