Beautiful pictures! I hope your new home brings you just as much joy as this one did. One of my friend’s mom’s scrapbooked every single place her and her husband lived their entire life. What became of it was a beautiful scrapbook…looks like you may have a good start? Good luck with the move!

Oh Em, how nicely written… Sounds like it will always have a special place in your heart! I am crossing my fingers that the move will go as smoothly as possible with all the snow going on and say “Prost” to your new place and everything that awaits you there. Hugs across the pond!

how bittersweet! I loved reading this post, it makes me want to hold onto our tiny one bedroom longer! I’m nostalgic for our first apartment in Chapel Hill, a duplex in the middle of nowhere/woods with no cell signal in the house. we didn’t turn on the heat all winter because the first time we tried it smelled like a burnt vacuum cleaner. While Garrett was in Mexico for a month at the beginning of our stay there I scoured craigslist for furniture and spruced up our little home. I really miss it!

Oh what a sweet post. It is always bittersweet to move from a place that has truly been a home and it sounds like this place will always be a fond memory for you. Lots of good wishes for you on your adventure of set up your new home and filling it with memories

Oh, what a bittersweet, touching blog! Memories mixed with new beginnings. Surviving the worst of times (your dad’s bout with cancer) and sharing the best of times (with your true love). I’m sure Locust Lane will always be special to you, but it’s time to move on and enjoy a big modern kitchen, lots of storage space, a garage (no digging out your car in the snow!), a guest bedroom for when you welcome friends and family, quiet nights without college students blaring their music, double sinks in the bathroom and a convenient laundry room, lots of wall space to display your photography, a new community to explore and new friendships to grow….Oh, you’re going to love your new home!!!!
