i think the title says enough, you hopefully get the picture. gorgeous house, but no this isn't the one we are moving to. and yes, that's what i said, we're moving. after 11 years of being in Utah we are heading to South Carolina, Charleston area. i doubt we can afford a house like this, but one can hope right? I feel like I've had a secret for too long, (we've know about 2 weeks moving was an option, and decided yesterday its a done deal) and now its time to admit it, we're moving. I'm scared, i am having a baby in 2 weeks, and we are supposedly moving Aug 1st. That gives me 10 weeks to have a baby and pack my house. I planted my garden and wont get to reap my rewards. I'm sad. i used to think i didn't mind change "it was fun and new and exciting" but now that we are going to be like 6 days away from the nearest family member (sorry Jessie you don't count, you are moving in like a yr) I was all for change if that meant moving to California. but no, the opposite ocean, the one with warm water and no waves to play in, there are tons of trees to block the skies, but a lot of history to learn about. I'm trying to think all positive thoughts. It's hard. I'm hoping its just fear of the unknown, including pregnancy hormones making me scared. anyway, that's my dirty little secret.
Oh and the worst part is we have to give Anna away. does anyone want a 7 yr old black lab? she's a really good dog, i'll even take her back in a few years! so sad, thinking about it just makes me sad.

WOW! What an exciting adventure. It's funny, my cousin JUST moved from SC (like this week) and sounds sad about it. I am sure you will find a niche for yourself there and love it!
I'm excited to hear (read) about it. :)
Sounds great. I hear fantastic things about South Carolina!!!!
How Fun! I love South Carolina!! We used to always go there as kids. But sad for us! I won't even have you as an exercise partner after you have that baby!!! And LOST!! And the Office! I will be too sad. We should watch the finale together in honor of the good times with my kids screaming int he background!!! Is the company buying your house? If you need help with stuff since you are probably overwhelmed let me know! I can watch kids for you while you pack!
Everyone else is being positive, but I think it's lame. There you go, that's my honest opinion.
What the heck? Is it April Fools? I just called dad to see if this was for real.
Okay, I'm really sad that you have to give Anna away. But I don't want your crazy pregnancy hormones to cloud how AWESOME this situation is. And 6 days away from the nearest family member? Rude. I'm three hours away, woman. That's pretty dang close to family.
Good news about South Carolina = it is closer to Kentucky! Hooray for me!!!
south carolina is amazing - you will love it!! how fun for you and your family :) and good luck with the new baby!
Carrie told me last night at Jay's baseball game, sad! I hear South Carolina is really beautiful and I'm sure you'll make friends fast. But it's always sad to leave family and friends behind. Hopefully you'll have lots of help packing!
Marsh has traveled all over this country for work and if he had to live anywhere it would be charlette (sp?). It is his all time favorite place! It's going to be awesome. A new adventure, new place, new friends. Stay positive. It will make trips home that much more memorable, and important. xoxo
Meh.

A beach is a beach. Were moving with you guys. Me and Shaun can share a room but No spooning
WHAAA?!
You are moving to South Carolina!? We will be in Utah this summer but you will be long gone by then. Crusty.
I wish it was me, though. It does sound like a fun adventure. And I'm not just sayin that.
I love Charleston!!! I'm shocked that your moving, but good for you for being adventurous!
