moving

We are moving. And it's still one of my least favorite things to do. However, Ryan knows this so he started a month ago and has packed about 99% of all the boxes. He even got the boys to help.

We're just moving across town but will be changing wards, stakes, and eventually schools. I don't like that much change. Especially when we love our current ward and school. I know it will be fine and we'll learn to love our new neighborhood. But I can't help but dread everything that goes along with it: changing phone numbers, learning the layout of a new grocery store, finding the good gas stations and restaurants, worrying about the kids making friends.
I am excited to have a bigger house.
And another perk is that my talented friends make me going away gifts like this necklace with the name of our ward.

at least there are some perks. i hate the physical part of moving, but i do like change. sounds like you will have a lot of change, though - but sounds good! so is the move just for a bigger house? and i don't really mean "just."

good luck!

oh, love the necklace.

I detest packing, so yay for the Haslam boys for helping lighten the load. I know your new ward will loooove you! Some of my all-time favorite families (that also start with the letter "H") are in that ward.
I've oft fantasized about living in that town again and how I'd make a regular habit of picking up "Vallarta's" tortilla chips & fresh guacamole! Yum!
