Even packing hasn't been the chore I thought it would be. Its been kind of fun going through all of our things. All the packing and reminiscing has brought on a bit of nostalgic sadness, however. This is the first home we have shared together. We moved into our condo on October 8th, 2008 and, aside from a couple of bad neighbors, we have loved every minute of our time here. I remember the first day we moved in like it was yesterday. He had been living in a house with a couple roommates and I was living at home. No judging! Its was a transitional temporary sitch! Anywho, neither of us had any sort privacy. When we moved in that first day it was like a sigh of relief. Our own space! Every room was ours and ours alone. We were a couple of crazy kids in love and playing house. I'm happy to say we are still a couple of crazy kids in love only this time playing house for real! Below I've shared some pictures of our time here. From our first Christmas tree to getting Bauer.

I've been Queen of the Castle for almost 4 years and what a pleasure it has been. I'm looking forward to my next term of service in our new house :)
Yes our years here in our tiny 2 bed/2 bath condo in Wildwood have been amazing but its time start the next chapter of our lives. Could it be? Is it possible? Are we actually growing up? Hahaha! We'll see....cross your fingers.
Love,
Tina
