I won't be posting much over the next week or so. The packers come today to box up all our stuff and the movers come tomorrow. We'll spend one last night here tomorrow night and then will head to Denver on Saturday afternoon, arriving sometime on Sunday. We close on the house on Wednesday. We'll be staying in the city for the first few days and then head out to the suburbs and our new house by the end of the week.
It's kind of crazy how we got here. We've been talking about this forever, trying to figure out exactly what we were going to do and how it was going to work, and now it's really here. The last few weeks have flown by on a week by week basis but we still really seemed so far from the move, and now it's here.
In so many ways I'm sad to go. Our friends have truly become our family - the family you get to pick yourself. I have so many people I can count on that I would trust with my kids, our home, myself. I'm going to miss them so much. I also can't imagine finding schools that are as good as the ones here. We've been at Amanda's school for five years now. They are so wonderful and she is so comfortable there, plus her Spanish was really just getting started. Andy's elementary school is wonderful. We have only good things to say and the principal is amazing. I'm not sure how you top her. Then there's just the comfort of knowing where you are going, the best way to get around, the grocery store where they know who you are, so many little insignificant things that all roll up into one.
But there is excitement as well. So many new things to see and do, an amazing house and neighborhood waiting for us, good schools. Plus it's about 25 degrees cooler in the summer. We just won't mention the winter right now. Everybody loves Denver, I'm sure we won't be disappointed.
It's all good, just wish I could take it all with me.
