And so it begins..


(I got over my writer's block!!! ;)

Wow! Why didn’t I realize that moving the 800+ miles would be so difficult?? I would say that no one warned me, but that wouldn’t be true, now would it? ;)

I’m sad to say that our “dream home” that was a possibility, is no longer an option. :( The owner decided to take it off the rental market and sell it instead. It is my philosophy that I am only meant to do what I’m able to do, so I mourned the loss of a dream for a couple of days, then moved on.

Since then, I have found several options, all of which are beautiful places! For now, the plan is to head to New Hampshire in mid July, look at as many places as possible in one or two days, sign a lease, then head home to pack!

When our current landlord listed our home for rent… that was when the move felt real.

We are really moving.

Boxes have been gathered, packing has begun, and here we go! We still have all of July, but I know that time will go considerably quickly.

Whoever is reading this, (I know you’re out there) thank you. Thank you for starting this journey with me. Until next time, here are some pictures of more New England homes that I photographed while visiting. Enjoy!

  2. came here from the gardener's cottage.
    my mother and her family came from upstate new york.
    my heart is in that part of the country and new england!
    but i married an oklahoma boy and they NEVER leave!
    now i'm a widow (for many long years now) and i could go
    back home... but i don't. i have a darling little cottage here...
    so your move is doubly exciting to me! who knows... maybe i'll get the spark.
    hugs to you both on your upcoming adventure!
