As my plane took off for the last time to Salt Lake I pretty much lost it inside. I was wearing my suit and dressed as a business professional so I couldn't cry out loud but it was all I could do to keep it in, I looked out the window and everything seemed to hit home, it was the last time I would leave Boise and go to Salt Lake for the week as my family stayed in Idaho. After this trip I would be going back to Boise and packing my family up to take them back to Salt Lake with me. The next time I left Boise it would be with tears in my eyes and driving away to our new home. It seems so sureal??? I am going to have to watch my parents watch their grand kids drive away, I am going to have to watch my brother and sister in law say good bye to their nieces and nephew that they adore dearly. We are going to have to watch Kelly who loved on our kids almost everyday for the last 5 years leave her house for the last time. And this is not good bye forever but it will probably be one of the hardest things I will have ever done.
Even though it doesn't feel like I think it will make our relationships with everyone that much stronger because now our time together will be so cherished we will never take it forgranted.
So here we are on our last week in Idaho and we will start saying our good byes on Thursday of this week as we set our time aside with each of our friends and they wish us off and wish us the best. I am just hoping we can stay strong together as we have to show our kids that this is okay and we have each other.
I have sent off cards to all our friends and family to let them know our new address in Utah, but will post it here as well so everyone gets it. Our new address is going to be
PO Box 95406
South Jordan, UT 84095
So here is our good bye to Idaho and all our friends - we hope everyone will come visit us or we can see you when we visit Idaho.
