Saying Goodbye to the Ancestral Home

My dad & his wife finally decided to stay in my dad's house and remodel and when I say remodel I mean completely gut the house so it is unrecognizable. The outside will pretty much stay the same (thank goodness) but the inside will be a completely new house. I'm sure it will be amazing once it's done, but it was still hard to throw everything away and see an empty house that's full of so many memories.

There will be many things I will miss -
one of things I will miss is seeing Lindsey's handwriting whenever I wanted.
She signed the infamous pole that's in the middle of our basement.

I will miss the crazy hallway in the basement that most people got lost in.

We will all miss the big screen TV that we've had for 17 years.
(I'm pretty sure it was the first big screen ever invented)

I will miss taking naps on Big Blue.
I will miss the white couches that we were never allowed to play on.
I will miss the arm chair because that's the chair my mom always sat on to read her scriptures and where we could find her when we came home from school.

So many memories, it makes me sad. Hopefully we can make some new ones in the new house!
