GOODBYE NEW HAMPSHIRE

Our long anticipated move has arrived. 
Tomorrow we drive off, not into the sunset, but into the sunrise, or perhaps before the sun rises.  
(Ok, my husband just pointed out that we are driving west therefore it is impossible for us to drive into the sunrise.)
It's just an expression dear!
I'm just saying, when you have 2,128 miles to go you have to get an early start!   

We have moved often.  Each move has been an adventure to a new place and has shaped our family in ways good and bad.  New Hampshire was a tough one because we where chasing a dream of business ownership that did not succeed in the difficult economy last year.  We made some hard decisions that turned out to be not the right ones for our family.  

Thankfully God opened a door for us to move to a place we know and love.  We are off to Colorado - singing John Denver the whole way!

Although New Hampshire was not the right place for us, it is a lovely place. 

Thank you New Hampshire for...
teaching our children to ski,
for an abundance of blueberries,
for hiking trails,
and amazing views.
We love that in 2 hours we could be at the Maine seacoast, or Boston's museums, or the Vermont mountains, or headed into Canada!
New Hampshire is full of history,
interesting people,
and delicious treats.

We head out with 4 children, 1 dog, an SUV(packed with plenty of road trip munchies and audio books), 2 moving trucks, and a dear friend from Texas who has volunteered to join our caravan as the 3rd driver.  It's going to be an adventure!
