Moving Day

I knew this day was coming for the last month, the day when my sister, brother-in-law and their 3 kids would be moving. It didn't really hit me until tonight when I saw the big moving truck parked outside the house. Although, I do have to say that it will be an easier move having them only going to St. George unlike their last move to San Diego. Hard enough where we cant do our weekly lunch dates or having Lauren and Dawson coming over to play at my house for hours at a time. Five hours in still a long drive where I wont be able to see all of your cute faces all the time, yet close enough where I can sneak in a weekend visit every now and again. It is hard to have family move away. First it was my bro/sis in-law moving to Texas and taking their kids away from me and my kids. Emmy and Claire loved to play and have sleepovers with Kassi and Halle and the following day heading to Dollar Tree to find a one of a kind toy. Oh, how my kids miss them and ask frequently when they are coming back.....and NOW....Lauren, Dawson and Damon. That leaves us here with one set of cousins left. Cortnee and Emeree it looks like its just us! We are so happy for all of our relatives that have moved and all the exciting experiences that the move has provided for your families and the wonderful opportunities your jobs have provided you. We love you all and wish you were all just a"little"bit closer.
I love you Launee! This will be such a good move for you guys. I will miss you and your sweet personality so much. You will do great down in the land of sun!
P.S. I hope this makes a little sense as I am typing through my crying eyes! BOOHOO:(

Oh so sad to read your blogspot about moving day. We all miss you guys too!! It hasn't even been one week since we last saw you all. We are trying to settle one box a day (literally, that is about how much I have been getting done). I feel sad but need to move forward for the career and kids sake. I think I will really like it here despite being away from our family. Thanks for everything and taking my kids as your own without ever complaining about watching them. Believe me, it is hard not to cry myself to sleep every night. You guys can move down here!!! Love you all, the pictures of the first day of school are darling. Love launee
