Farewell to Canyonbrook



So, this is our final week at our condo. We are moving on Saturday to our new home in Lindon. Yea!! It has been a long time coming (like, since January)! As things begin to fall into place while we prepare for the move, and our condo is becoming a little more empty each day, I have been feeling mixed emotions about it all. Here is a list of things we are leaving behind. Some of them we will miss, and some of them we look forward to moving away from!


What we WON'T miss:

1) our car being towed from the place we live because it was parked overnight in main parking ($150 a pop)

2) the lawn crew waking Jackson from his naps, without fail, every week

3) the ugly little worms that make there way into our home each morning during springtime

4) storing groceries in the hall closet or on top of the counter because there is not enough room in the kitchen cabinets.

5) Our noisy dishwasher and cabinets doors


What we WILL miss:

1) wonderful neighbors (friends and family, and newest neighbor Izzy) living so close! thanks for all the borrowed sugar, soup, milk, eggs, etc. whenever we ran out and were in a bind!!

2) the 19th ward

3) our roses, trumpet vine and clematis

4) the kitchen being on the same level as our bedrooms (this is convenient when Jackson wakes at 5am and mom needs to make a bottle so she can go back to bed!)

5) someone mowing the lawn for us!


We have a lot of great memories of this place over the past two years! It has been great to us. But we look forward to starting our new lives in Lindon and hope we feel as much at home as we have here.
