| Our welcome home for the last four years. |
I guess, in a short period of time we have put our stamp on this condo and really made it a place we call 'home.' I still remember the first day after the move-in and we had settled with the fact that there was no way for us to get our big couch into either the elevator or the stairwell. Outside of hiring a crane to hoist it over the balcony six floors up ... we were sunk. So we sat in our big living room on pillows and had our first meal in our home while watching a movie (cable not set up yet). It was blissful!
We move out in 10 days. I know once that last piece of furniture is moved out and we lock the door the last time as our permanent residence ... it's gonna hit. It's been a great home for these two fathers and our son to build our family unit, but now it's on to bigger and better things. I guess we can take comfort in knowing we aren't actually selling our condo just yet....we may never will. Maybe this'll turn out to be our retirement condo when we are old and grey - and still fabulous!
If you are a person who helped us make so many memories with us over the years, we raise a glass to you and thank you. We have truly enjoyed our time here at MICA and will desperately miss our POOL! Our fabulous pool is like our scarecrow ... we'll miss it most of all.
I'm sitting here writing this in the dark as I just got Kyler to bed for the night. Thank God it is Friday tomorrow. However, tonight I'll go to bed knowing that I have as many nights left in our bedroom as I do fingers. Ten fingers left here......ten.
This is so sweet and so true. We've moved so much that I realize now that not all places have that little something. Some I'm so glad we left/couldn't get rid of the key fast enough, but others, well, I wish I could have stayed there forever and I always wonder if the people who live there now appreciate it as much as I did. But, alas, on to better things! Best of luck :)
ReplyDeleteDarn you, you made me cry. I love all five of you and always will. If you need any help moving in or out you let me know! See you soon! :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new place, Brad, and your feeling. You guys are an inspiration to all of us who still want to start families.
ReplyDeleteOh... I know. I think this is the hard time, when you're about to leave. But once you start unpacking boxes in your beautiful place you'll be making new memories. And it will be home. And, then every now and again you'll think about where it all started and you'll smile. Until next summer then you're going to say "damn. where's the pool?"
