goodbye little home

we turned over the keys to our house this morning. it was like saying goodbye to an old friend. i'm quite sure my hormones are speaking as i punch the letters on my keyboard...but that's what it feels like. i know we'll make our new house a home in no time. the babies will create childhood memories of camp outs & tea parties, ryan & i will catch up over countless cups of coffee & enjoy the company of loved ones for years to come. but for now it just feels kind of sad. we are currently in temporary housing until we can move into our new house at the end of the month. that probably contributes to the feelings of displacement for now. i am so thankful for our first house & all of the memories with friends & family that helped to make it a home.

here's one last peek at the poehl house...more for my documentation than anything else.

  1. This post really touched me. I can't imagine how excited you are for your new house, but sad at the same time. I know I will feel that as we prepare to move at the end of the year. Can't wait to hear about all the wonderful new memories the Poehl family is going to make!

  2. You and me are going through so many of the same emotions with moving. Yours just a few weeks ahead of me. The picture of Davis sitting with his hands out like "where did it go?" is sweet and sad. That is Joel's favorite sign these days, so it really touched me.

  3. Andrea, I try to keep up, really I do... where are y'all moving after the temp housing situation? I can't remember. Did you post about it and I just missed it? Hope all is well
