Home Sweet Home?

We are all moved in to the new house and for the most part we like it. I didn't realize how emotional I was going to be leaving our own home. My sweet missionaries came over one last time and we all cried and took lots of pictures. I am very upset I don't get to see those Sisters anymore, we really had a great bond with one another. We lived in a not so great neighborhood but I liked our home. Walking through the house to make sure we had everything and seeing the bare walls reminded me of when we first moved in and how excited we were. Joe has done so much work on that house over the last 5 years. I keep reminding myself that our unfortunate loss will be someone else's gain. I am hoping that someone who never though they would be able to buy a house will get ours. And they wont have to do any work to it. Anyway, the new house, it is bigger with a huge living room and backyard. The kids have more room then they know what to do with! Treyson is having a hard time, he misses his home. He looks to me and tells me "I want to go home now, Mom, to our home!" It breaks my heart. We remind him that this is out new home and how awesome it is to be here. I hope he starts to feel more comfortable soon. I know it will take us all some time but we have already started making new memories here. We play in the backyard everyday and Trace loves that. He has really started getting into playing baseball and he is pretty dang good at it too! Jeresy had rug burns on her knees from working in crawling and I am still trying to figure our where to put things. Joe, he is such a trooper, he loves this house, it has a garage...what else could a man need! It is pretty easy to keep him satisfied! So here we are, making our new home a "Sweet" one!

Fun! That's great that you are in such a great place. I know it's hard moving from a place that you put so much work into though, especially when your kids are so confused about it all! But I'm glad you are all doing so well! Good luck getting settled!!!
