Goodbye Brant Court

How do you say goodbye to 5 1/2 years worth of friendships and memories?

Its very hard.

This was our first home, the only home J and K have ever known

14264 Brant Court

 

We met strangers who grew to be dear friends.

The years have literally slipped by.

And to say goodbye was just nearly impossible.

Last Night at Brant Court.

Last "boy"hang out as we packed the moving truck (I love how Garret put his hand on K)

One of my last morning devotions and coffee.

The last day picking up the mail and hearing J say "Mom, I got the mail and I'll walk home ok? Just go ahead!" (Of course I never do, I stay right next to him watching him walk home like a big boy)

My most fondest memory of them all is this picture. Seeing how through the years my little men grew not only in curiosity and in size, but have grown from babies in diapers to young boys. 

With having closed one chapter, God's faithful to bring me to start another.

Our home for the next couple years is Mum and Papa's Casita (Casita probably isn't the right word to describe this mansion). The boy's and I get the east wing.

And yes, Cabo came too!

Cabo get's the back side. Noel's still getting used to the arrangements.

The boy's have already marked their territory with legos.

They are the most excited when they hear the garage door open knowing it's Papa coming home. The house is it's loudest at that time with screams of joy from the boy's and barks and squeals from Noel. Tonight the boy's played with their remote control cars in the street while Cabo barked the heck at them.

They rode their bikes.

 School has been in effect even as we've settled in. The boy's have adapted well to our new classroom.

And the boy's got a chance to explore the black hole of stuff Mommy still has to sort through.

We get special snuggle times with Mum.

We get these cool bunk beds that make me more nervous.

Yet, in the end, God's allowed a new chapter of memories, friends, opportunity and blessings to unfold and I pray to embrace the changes He has for us.

 

Brant Court family you are not forgotten. I have loved getting to know all of you and I cherish the friendship we and our children have together. You all have been there for the greatest of memories, and well, the not so great too. We will hold you all dear to our hearts and hope to come visit, not as visitors but as veterans.
