All good things must come to an end



At least that's what "they" say. We are moving in with my parents at the end of August. It's been a decision we've been tossing around for quite some time. My parents have been extremely gracious and accommodating. We are so sad to leave. We absolutely love our ward and friends here. We have never felt so "at home" since we've been married. There are so many things I will miss about this place:

* Built in babysitters :)
* Hilarious neighbors & friends
* The courtyard and impromptu play dates
* Great ward
*It's a safe place to be with children
* Family friendly (no smoking, no pets, etc.)
* The funny pranks we played on people...heh

I don't know--it has just really felt like home here. We know it's the right decision, financially, and that helps...it's just going to be a big adjustment for us. For the first time, I am feeling very anxious about moving.

We put up the ad on Craigslist.com about 20 minutes ago and have already received a response! I don't think this place will last long...we'll keep you posted. Click here to see the ad (and spread the news if you know of someone looking).

WOW Rae that is a big move! Moving is really hard (we've moved 6 times in our 4 year marriage) and it's always hard to uproot yourself but it's just the end of one chapter and the beginning of another! Good Luck with everything!

I already sent the email to someone who might be looking...

good luck to you! We've lived with each of our parents and we survived!

by the way, I just read your "totally hot" description and I totally agree!

I am totally hot too, but that's only because I live in Vegas.. and it's rather warm here.

I have tried to comment like four times but my computer has been some sort of nazi lately. I just have to say that I feel so sad for you. I know how much you loved the people that you lived around. But I'm sure you'll find your new niche in your next ward, even with your parents cramping your style. :)j/k! I also wanted to say that I loved that you did the tag, and I really am always surprised that I learn something new about people every time they do one of those. Anyway, hope you find someone to rent your apartment soon!

It's so hard to move!!! Especially when you love where you're at. We lived w/ my parents for a while & it worked & totally helped us out when we needed it most. Parents are great that way! You guys will make the best of any situation though. Good luck! Oh, and you're totally welcome in Idaho anytime. We don't discriminate. :) Have a great day!

I never knew you lived so close to me. I live right by Fort Union. Good luck with your parents. Its hard but if you do it right it will be SO worth it! You have to be better disciplined than we were when we lived with MY parents. We just lived like rock stars cuz we didn't have to ay rent.....LOLOL!! But we were young and stupid and didn't have kids yet =)
