Surrounded By Boxes!

This is what I am surrounded with .....



Many many of these .....



I am excited, I can't wait to get to UNPACK. Packing is incredibly frustrating! I really don't enjoy it. But to think that this will be the last time I pack up and the last time I move house for a long time (or ever!) just makes me smile. I have moved A LOT!

Jase and I lived in 9 different houses together. I sure was hoping that we would be making this leap into home ownership together but sadly it isn't to be. Moving into this house is in a way a little bitter sweet. I think about him constantly. He was an awesome packer and organiser. He would have had things sorted and arranged without hesitation. I miss him so much and it still hurts so much but Jase is always with us as long as we keep his memories alive he will always be in our hearts and in our home!

But!! I still can't wait to get into that house and start making it our home!!

lots of love to you Trace, as you move into this new home.
It must be very bittersweet without your beloved to share this with you.
Im am looking forward to seeing your new home and watching you transform it into your own.

I last moved 13 years ago .. .. .. and lived in my childhood home from birth till I was 18 - did I miss out on anything with moving?
