Sarah's tree thoughts: March 2013

Thursday, March 28, 2013

Hi, everybody! Aspen here, mostly because as of today the couches are no longer ours and neither is the hutch, mom's dresser, and the rug. No TV and only the laptop and our phones, so the most exciting thing we can do is To sit around and stare at the wall, but 2 nights ago ( on spring break) the snow was falling, it got to like 2 inches high, and ( it's a kid thing ) we felt pulled to go and play in it at, as you can tell, 9:30 PM. Let it be known that I did get cedar back!!! :)

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the key is MANPOWER! Mothers, just go inside and bake them some brownies and hot chocolate but MAKE SURE that you save one for your daughter(s)!

It's been an emotional Sunday! We are trying to get packed and loaded. The kids try to help and thy do a good job, except for Linden who unpacks things and Laurel who just wants some attention. We load up the Uhaul tomorrow, I'm really hoping we are ready for it. I just finished cooking my last family dinner in this kitchen and the kids are out with Jonathon playing one last time on grandpa's swing set. I think I can count on my fingers the number of days that have gone by that they haven't played on it. We've had such good memories here. We've brought 3 kids home to this house. There's a little bit of everyone's blood and sweat in the floors and ceilings and walls. As houses go, I think I'll like my new house better, but I would never trade the memories that this house gave me for anything.
