Apt. 5

This morning we woke up to pouring rain accompanied by lightening and thunder, with our small apartment in the disarray that is called moving. I knew this day was coming, since Sam resigned the lease last July but my heart was still a little sad as we close the door one last time.

I remember two year ago, after Sam and I's second year at camp together helping him move in.  In May of last year when I made the treck over to Grand Rapids and we had our first dinner together at his apartment before I drove the ten minutes over to my new home (how short ten minutes are when compared to two hours).  Walking into the apartment as husband and wife and creating with what we have our first home together.  And here we are, at the end of the first chapter of our little family.

Our home for the next few months is going to look a little different as we spend time with family in Michigan and then in Texas before Florida becomes our stomping grounds for the rest of 2016.

Goodbye sweet first home, you had many challenges but oh so many sweet little moments.
