The Second Half

Once the truck left that fateful day, we lived in an empty house for about 2 days. 

It was really depressing. Honestly, I couldn't wait to get out of the house because it was just too sad to be in MY house that was now empty. 

We then commenced our journey to The Mother Land. (meaning, Utah. I am Mormon, so thus the Mother Land reference.)

The drive wasn't bad. I had company...though I could tell Weston was stressed out because he was shaking and drooling all over the place. Poor puppy. He didn't want to leave Colorado either..

Along the way, we passed this. Its not our truck, but I got a kick out of the writing on the back.

 

"Do it movin? Blessed Coast"

i definitely did not feel this way. 

but props to those people who did. 

During the trip, Cam and I had to pull over to the side of I-80 due to a freak storm that impaired any/all vision. So while we were sitting there, some man came up to my window and asked if he could sit in our car...

Um no, sorry sketch stranger. I really would prefer if you didn't sit in my car. 

Moving on.. (hah, the irony of the statement..)

8 hours later, we arrived in blessed Utah. Actually, I shouldn't use the word blessed. But its fitting, because I really was sick of driving.

This is now where I live. 

 House. 

Street. 

Ok ok ok. Its not bad, I'll give you that. But I would rather it be in Colorado.

We have a pretty sweet backyard. The mountains are literally right there. 

AND (i am now going to list the cool things about my house. this is NOT bragging)

• There is a little river rock thing in our front yard. And so when you turn it on, it sounds like a beautiful forest brook just doing its thing. 
• We have a three car garage. No more parking out in the snow and having to sit in a cold car for 10 minutes while you wait impatiently for it to warm up. 
• THEATRE ROOM. Huge projection screen where we can watch movies and more movies and more movies.
• Its only a nice (depending on traffic) 20 minute drive from BYU, where I will be attending school in the fall. Which means:
• free laundry
• free meals 
• other free things 
• oh, and my FAMILY <3

Its going to be hard, with lots of adjusting and many many many boxes to unpack. BUT, at least I still have my family. I'd be one glum child without them. So thank goodness I have them. My brothers and I have already started to have a couple adventures, so I know its gonna be just fine.

Is moving hard? Heck Yes.  

Do I know its the right thing to do? Yes. 

Can I learn to love it here? Probably.
