Yes, we are moving and we are set to close July 10th but that could possibly be moved up. This is a bitter sweet time for us right now, I love living in Spanish Fork and I thought I would get to be here until they buried me in the cemetary. I just wanted to take some time on my blog to list the things that I will miss in no particular order because I'm not that good at blogging my pictures in order.
Now this is #1......I will miss living so close to the best friends I have ever had in my life. I will stay in contact with them but I will miss living around the corner from them. They aren't all pictured but you know who you are. They have been there through every laughter, joy, grief, or pain that I have ever had and I can always count on them and that is why I will miss them so much.
Me and Melanie!
24th parad with the Shockley's and Barrett's. I had to cut Melanie out because she hates the picture of her. And Melanie we really do want to come back for the 24th every year since we love it!
I will miss living next door to my grandma! She has been so wonderful with my kids and they love her so much. I have grown so close to her she feels like a second mother to me and I will miss shopping with her, going to lunch, swinging on the porch, and talking about anything and everything. Again I will stay close to her but it wont be the same as having her right there. I am hoping she will move close to me.
I will miss my kids school. It has been such a wonderful place for them to learn and they have had life changing teachers.
I will miss the breathtaking views of the beautiful mountains in Spanish Fork
This one is of the Mt. right out my window in the family room!
I will miss my yard. I truly love working in the yard and each year I have loved watching everything come back bigger and more beautiful each year.
Although we will come back for this. I will miss living right in the city that hosts the Festival of Lights.
I will miss my ward and I will miss my primary children, and yes they are mine because I love them that much. I will miss working with the amazing ladies in my presidency who I have become such good friends with.
I will miss Spanish Fork Main Street, I think it's beautiful Cora
I will miss all my diet coke stops like Johnny's and Tosoro
I will miss the public library here and the city park.
I will miss couponing with my friends
I will miss Barry's Drive In
I will miss my morning walks in the beautiful river bottoms and the great conversation with my friends.
There are so many things to miss here but I know I need to do what's right for my family so I say with a little excitement and much sadness goodbye to Spanish Fork, but I will be back regularly for visits don't you worry!!!!!

Tandy,
What a heartfelt, tear provoking tribute.
I wish I could have lived up in your wonderful neighborhood--wish I could have been the one moving in. Then you could hang out at your place any old time you wanted to!
I am so grateful to know you, and to have the opportunity to meet with all you lovely ladies each month. Please say you are still coming to book club?
What a blessing for you and your beautiful family. At the same time I know it must also be so, so difficult for you all. I am heartbroken and celebrating for you all at once.
Love you-
I guess it really is official since you BLOGGED it! I really didn't think this time would come. This post really makes me want to cry! Tandy you and your family will be so missed. You've become such a dear friend to me and I just love ya! I knew I liked you from the first time I met ya! Just know we adore you, and you better come back....A LOT! I'm a selfish friend, I dont want to see you guys go, but you do have to do whats best for family. We love you!! Try not to forget about the little people here in Spanish Fark! And I spent to spell it that way too! I really love ya and think the world of you guys.
Congrats on the sale of your home! I am sure it is hard to leave, but at the same time it has to be a stress relief to have your house sold and to be moving closer to your hubby's work so he won't be commuting so much. You are 20 minutes closer to me, maybe we could meet up at the zoo this summer. I have my best friend in Lehi, so I hope when I come up there it is okay for me to come and say hi. Good luck!
Thanks for the tears Tandy. I have been on the verge of crying since primary yesterday. It really has been a blast. I love you much.
You will be missed!!! Caleb was really sad when I told him you wouldn't be in Primary anymore. My kids love you! Thank you for giving so much of yourself to everyone in Primary. You have helped make Primary a wonderful place to be...thank you for being GREAT!!! Congrats on your new house...it's beautiful!
