After years of talking about it and changing our minds many times, we have finally moved out of our first home and ventured back to our roots on the east. It was stressful and sad to leave. I am so surprised we actually got all our belongings shoved into the truck.
James, his dad and stepmom left on the 12th to drive to Maryland. (James is from Maryland). The boys and I just got here on the 21st. We stayed in an empty apartment for a couple of days and then ventured to Pocatello to stay with my sister-in-law for a week before our flight. It was a wonderful break and helped me to take my mind off of the move. We missed daddy though, so we're glad to finally be back together. We're taking over the basement in James' parents house until we can find a place (though his mom says she's never letting us leave now that she got us here :), so now I'm busy unpacking and reorganizing and trying to help the kids adjust to a new home and no friends.
Makai has had a hard time sleeping and Ezra has been asking me to go home or to go visit certain friends. It makes me sad. I really miss our friends. I don't know if we'll ever have as good of friends like we had in Rexburg. I will cherish them always.
It is great to be with family again, so that does help greatly.
I don't know the area, nor do I have a car anymore AND it is a sauna out there! I'm from New Hampshire, so I know humidity, but oh man, this is hot. Therefore, we're hiding out in an air conditioned basement most of the day. There is still much to be done which explains my blog absence.
Also, Ezra turned 3 on the 17th, so I will post about his birthday soon.
For now, we miss you Rexburg. And hello Maryland.

Wasn't Rexburg Mary-land enough for you? I got teary reading this! I can't believe you are really gone. Good luck with everything
I miss you a lot already too! We'll stay in touch! I promise! I love the big photo of the truck! We'll be doing that in a couple weeks too..haha
Crazy! That's all so exciting! Can't wait to hear more about it.
Park Place!!! *sniff* Hope you have fun in Maryland--much more exciting than Salt Lake... I'm jealous :)
I'm so glad you posted. I'm sad you moved too. Atley has no friends here either except Holly and his Grandparents so we miss having Ezra close.
I was thinking about Ezra on his birthday! I can't believe he's already 3!
We miss you guys. Hope to talk to you soon!
WHAT THE?!?! What are you doing out there? I thought you were staying. . . did James get a job there? This is CRAZY. But exciting! I'm jealous of the big move. I LOVE change, even though it's hard. You'll make a load of friends in no time! Good luck!
Glad you guys made it safely! I always enjoyed the east coast, and since you are both from there, I'm sure it's nice being back. Can't wait to hear more about your life in Maryland! :)
