Last night, for the first time, I sort of panicked about moving into the 'dream home.' I realized it means actually leaving our current home, where we have lived for the past three years. Our relationship, family, and careers went through many changes during this time. I know three years isn't long in the grand scheme, but it feels like an eternity of memories. Some big ones were...
- adopting our goldendoodle Colbie - we were happy he had a yard to romp around in!
- my first pregnancy!
- welcoming our sweet baby Cormac into the world
- three different job changes for Hubby
- my first year as a stay-at-home mama
- and many, many celebrations!
Here are just a small smattering of photos taken in and around our home....

new memories.
But for now...
