Saying Goodbye



I have been trying to write this blog for over a week now. I wanted to share all these pictures and tell everyone how much the house meant to me, and all of the great memories I have there. I miss not being able to go home whenever I want anymore. It feels so weird to not be able to go there. I loved the house, but I am trying to tell myself that it is just a house, and it is our family that made it feel like home. So, here are my pictures to help me remember all the good times we had, and my goodbye so that we can keep moving on and growing together. Instead of telling you all of my great memories, maybe some of these pictures will make you remember some of your own. Thanks for being such an awesome family.

These are some great pictures of the house! I will miss it too, but I am really excited about the new condo for mom and Geoffrey. I think it's going to be so much better for them. I also think that it is our family that made the house a home, and we can do that anywhere. I've been really happy to have our family get together at my place.
I'm also really happy about the couple that bought the house. They seem really excited about really taking care of that house and fixing it up, and I'm glad someone is in the house that will love it and take care of it. It made it easier for me to let it go.

I didn't know a sale had gone through...that must be pretty weird to have to give up a house you've had so many memories in. But that's good that you have so many good memories of it that you can keep forever!

I can't believe these pictures have been up since the 11th and I am just now seeing them. (I don't get much time on the computer.) Thank you, Chelsee, for all these pictures and your thoughtful comments. I have a full spectrum of memories attached to this home, and they cover 27 years. Most of you don't even remember growing up in any other place. So, I cried all the way down the page. These will be a good reminder of my life in this home. Thank you.

Chelsee! These are great. I almost didn't want to look at them because I get so choked up. I'm glad I did look, though! They are great and like Mom said, will definitely bring back all the good memories from our childhood home.
