change is always a good thing...

by StephSwan - Wednesday, May 21, 2014

for the next month or so (hopefully less than that) we are going to be busy looking for another place to live. our rental contract is up for renewal and the owners of the house decided to sell the house, so out we go. i know we were planning on finding another place next year, to get riley in the right area for school but it feels so sudden and rushed, probably because the move wasn't planned. i am excited for a change but very sad...

we've lived here now for 4 years and a lot has happened in this time, the house has so many great memories. {click on the links to see these memories}:

i remember how excited (and exhausted) we were when we first moved in; we couldn't wait to live in this old house; we had our first bbq (braai) when we lived here for only a week; i had fun decorating the house and making it feel more like a home;

we planned & made all the things for our wedding;

got married;

found out we were pregnant; got riley's room ready; riley's birth and coming home from the hospital; riley's first halloween; got riley ready for his first wedding; after our 6 month visit in south africa, nina came to visit; riley's first birthday; wayne's first father's day; where riley lived for his first 2 years of his life & all the milestones he achieved.

looking at all these photos and remembering everything that happened in these past 4 years; i am going to miss this house so much!

like i said (in the title) change is always a good thing, so i am super excited to see what is next in store for us!!
