Dear.......

Dear My wonderful Neighbor,

Thank you so much for texting me yesterday morning to see if we wanted dinner last night. How did you know that we wouldn't be getting home until 7 p.m.  dog tired? You must be psychic. We will miss you and your family when we move and we appreciate the service that you have given us over the last few years. Thank you.


Dear Guy I married,

I hope we have learned a valuable lesson from this ordeal that we have endured over the last 8 months. Just because something looks like it's easy to do, doesn't mean you should do it.  Building a house is not easy, moving into the house is even harder, and we don't need to do this again. I hope we are on the same page, because I am perfectly happy to die in our current home. Thank you for the nights when you just picked up dinner and didn't fight me on it. Love you.


Dear mom,

Thank you for being amazing. Thank you for coming over a few times a week to help me pack up my mess of a house and move it over to another messy place and organize it. Thank you for letting me cry a little when I got frustrated and for validating how I feel about our current situation. Thank you for reminding me that there is a light at the end of this tunnel and that our new situation is a lot better than our current one. I love you.

Dear Dad,

Thank you for coming over and spending an entire day with my husband cleaning out a garage that has not been touched in 20 years. Thank you for sharing 1/2 of your sandwich with him (since I didn't make him a lunch). And thank you for taking an entire day off of work to do it.

Dear Brad Dana,

Thank you soooo much for all of the hard work you have helped us with. You have been there with us every step of the way and we are so grateful!

Dear Brad Fuller,

Thank you for making my awesome closet organizers! They made things sooo much nicer. It was fun to spend time with you and to learn how to do it.  We sooo appreciate you taking time out of your busy life to come and make my closets fabulous! Thank you!

Dear Children,

Please refrain from opening packed boxes and exhuming the contents all over the house. This has been a very frustrating task going around and collecting the remnants and reorganizing them. You will be ousted from the premises and forced to live with the animals if you can not refrain.

Your Exhausted Mother

  1. How wonderful to be surrounded by such love and support. I hope you feel that it has been worth all the troubles and stress when you finally unpack that last box and breathe in your new beautiful home that you crafted with your own hands.

  2. Ha! I wish Heather. I just found out today that our heat will not be turned on until Mon., T.V. Tuesday (not a huge deal, but still), the beautiful oven that we bought off of Craigslist doesn't work, and I have been moving most of the stuff myself. Burned, underappreciated, spread too thin, and miserable. Don't ever build a house
