An emotional week

As of tomorrow at 10:30am our little house in Apple Valley will no longer be ours and to be honest, I'm a little sad. I always complained that the house was too small, the to-do list was too long and that the house was just too old. But, now that we are leaving, I think about the four year, 3 months and 12 days that we lived in this house. For the kids and I, this is the longest we've ever lived in one place and now it seems strange because we're moving on! I was at the house this morning at 2am getting some cleaning done and my heart was sad to think we are leaving our home behind. The kitchen was the best part of the house and I have so many wonderful memories of cooking and baking with the family in the kitchen. We brought Matthew home to this house and it makes me a little sad that he won't be able to grow up in the house in which he was born. But, we'll get a new house and make many more memories. I would like to say that this is our last move but since the Army owns my husband I can't! We are all jammed in a hotel suite (2 adults, 1 teenager, two small boys, 1 105# black lab and 3 cats) until we close on our new house but at least we're all together! We have on more week here in Minnesota and we are going to try and do a few fun things and then on Saturday, October 25th we'll make the move to a hotel in Wisconsin....and then we'll be cheese-heads!
