The Things You Find When you Move

Tomorrow is our big "move in" day. I'm excited but I know there is still a lot to pack. Last night I helped Sam go through some of his stuff and it's crazy the things you find when you're moving. If you have been following this blog for a while (and if you haven't- "Welcome! Glad to have you!") you know that Sam & I have been together since high school, so some of the things we found were pretty interesting.

This was the picture of our first high school dance we went together. We look so young and skinny. Also, in going through his stuff we found another great high school dance memory- my prom garter.

I love the charm with our names of it. On the back of the charm it says "Prom 2004". Oh how quick life has seemed to moves when your having fun!

The final gem of our finds (well at least for me) was a 10 page note I wrote Sam for him to read on his way to Russia back in 2003, when he went there with a high school exchange program.

I don't know if I will ever again write him a 10 page "note" (Do you remember writing notes in high school? I feel like with all the technology now- that note writing is a lost art) but it was interesting to read how much I cared/ loved Sam even only after dating him for less then 2 years. I really believe your first love should always be a fun and passionate love- our was and still is!

Wish us luck on our move tomorrow. Here's hoping we get everything in the truck and moved!
