With the sale of our house quickly approaching, I am starting to get sad. These are the things I will miss the most about our house.
I will miss our shady backyard that the kids love to run around in.
I will miss our crepe myrtle tree. This is the biggest crepe myrtle tree I have ever seen. It blooms pretty hot pink blossoms twice a year.
I will miss this beautiful hydrangia bush. This plant was given to Robert's grandmother when his grandfather passed away. It has survived many freezes and droughts, and still blooms the biggest prettiest blossoms.
I will miss this holly tree. In the fall it is full of red berries. This has always been my mom's favorite.
But what I will miss the most are the memories. The memories of fixing the house up before we got married. The back breaking labor of refinishing the hardwood floors. The vivid memory of bringing Britton home from the hospital and having a little melt down because I felt so overwhelmed. The vivid memory of bringing Clayton home from the hospital last year and wondering what the heck I was thinking!! Robert is having a hard time too. This is where his grandparents lived, and where he spent many days helping his grandma cook breakfast and lunch. He has such sweet memories of his grandparents here. This house has such neat character, and it is bittersweet for us to sell it.
But, this is what we have to look forward to!


This will be our new house, and our new yard!
