 ^johnnys first day homeV

 

 christmas time

 ^johnnys birthday

 

 ^i loved our blooming trees

^our last morning with no furniture in the house

 we moved into this little house a year and a half after we got married and after living in an apartment. this little place was just what we needed. a yard, big windows and an extra bedroom. we moved here just a month after finding out we were going to have a baby.

 there was so much good in this house. 

it was always filled with friends, and family.

we loved watching life happen out our big front window. the people that walked by, the seasons that passed. it was like the perfect movie. we love it in the fall, winter, spring and summer. 

we brought our baby home here. we had sleepless nights, little giggles, all the firsts, and lots of little foot steps running around. 

i will miss this house because i will miss the me that lived in it. 

the me that had dinner groups here, the me that took my little tiny baby out in the fall air, the me that loved the christmas lights on our real house, the me that drove jake to school during the snow the me that loved having my best friends live with in just a few block of me, 

the me that lived a very simple life. 

im really excited to start new and move to california. we will be by all the things we love, the beach our families, no winter. but i will miss how simple and easy life is in utah. we are moving to a place where know no one, it more expensive and its an apartment, jake will be at school alot longer, it will be more "real life", and i will miss my brothers and friends terribly. 

it will be a good move for us, and jake will love school. we will make friends and make new wonderful memories.

but i will always miss this little house packed full of perfect memories.
