Yes, we are moving. I am sad, stressed, and excited all at the same time. I'm sad to leave this wonderful ward where I've made such great friends in the time we've been here. I'm stressed about all the packing I have to do, and making sure it all gets done before Saturday morning. And I'm, excited to be moving into a beautiful, new home.
I've also been kind of emotional lately. I cry over the thought of leaving our ward friends, and especially the Young Women whom I've grown to love. It's definitely a bittersweet time in my life.
To my ward friends: feel free to come hang out with me this week. I'll be packing like a mad woman.
P.S. If you do come visit, don't be surprised if I randomly tear up! You all know I cry over everything!
P.P.S. Please forgive me for my future infrequent postings. I'm moving out, and moving in! I'm going to be one busy mama!

You will be very missed by all in this neck of the woods. But you'll still be close enough that we can hang out if we so desire. Word, Smitty! (fist-pound-chest, flash ILY sign)
Ahh, I so know how you feel. I have been teary for the past couple of weeks as well. Isn't it funny that the people you will miss the most are the YW & YM? They are so awesome. Even though I have been out for over a year, I still consider them "my girls". And I don't think Randy will care when I say that he has shed some tears of his own over leaving the YM. As far as leaving ward friends, I have come to terms that we are not losing you all, we will just be gaining more in our new place! Right? RIGHT?!
Good luck with moving. We are right there with you... so are you moving on Saturday? My dad and brothers are coming down this weekend I think to take all the heavy stuff. If we get done in time I'm sure they will be more than happy to help! (Like how I volunteer them?)
Either you call me or I'll call you when we're in the house so we can get together!
It is always sad to leave. Mike and I were in tears as we drove away. Good luck with the moving. I would offer to babysit but Addie just came down with strep throat. Gotta love her. That picture with your house in the snow is so pretty! You will love your new house though. . . it will be a good thing!
OH~~~You can not leave...only if you promise to keep in touch!!!!
Ah yes Cami, I can just invision your emotional self.......first the chin will start trembling as you try to talk leading to the 3-2-1 countdown of the tears coming. (Jim seriously used to countdown during the start of your testimonies when your chin would quiver to when the tears would come). Seriously though, change is exhilirating, yet sad and a little scary at the same time. I am sure you are feeling very overwhelmed right now with just the stress of moving let alone leaving behind so much familiar that you love! I was going to try to call you this week (think I forgot to return a call like a month ago....so sorry!) But, maybe I'll wait to give you time to get settled again! Call me if you need a break and want to chat for a minute though! Good luck with the move!
You and your wonderful family will be very missed. My hubby was esp. bummed. Your new neighborhood/ward is soooooooo lucky!
I've always loved that picture of your house all prettied up in lights! And I can't wait to hear about and see pics of the new place! Good luck packing :)
Cami, it's nancy!! Love love love the video of Andie crying over the present. Too dang funny :)
