So we really did it!!

Our house is all packed up and we drove off on Monday. It was a little sad, I did cry as we drove away, and when I had o say goodbye to everyone. I thought it would be harder to leave the house than it was. Once we started taking everything out it started to look less and less like our home. I will always miss that house I'm sure, I've raised my family there. We'll see how it goes. Right now I'm really trying hard to focus on all the positives we are gaining by moving. Olivia did break down in tears yesterday and cried to "go home", that killed me. I was thinking then what would I have to do to buy my house back!! Change is hard, I know it is for me so I can't imagine what they are going through. I'm just hoping and praying that when we get there and settle in that everyone will be happy. I also keep reminding myself that we never planned on living in that house forever, it was suppose to only be 5 years and we just made it 10!

We've had a blast at Kalahari, it's been a very nice distraction. Right now my kids are lying in bed eating ice cream cones and watching UP. These kids are the most important thing to me and I know in my heart that moving to NC is what is best for them, so I'm trying hard to suck up any petty feeling about my house. I'm sure we'll make this next house our home too!! Well tomorrow morning we wake up and drive home, we'll just be driving in the opposite direction then we usually do. I'm sure tomorrow will be hard when it hits me that we're not going back to our house, that this just wasn't a little get away. Wish me luck!!!

  1. oh :( That's so sad! I am imagining moving and its really scary! :( I hope we can get out before our kids are old enough to know because that would just kill me to want to go "home." You guys will be fine once you're all settled. Keep updating and post pics of the house and kids asap!
