For Rent

It's not us...but our neighbors! Our next door neighbors, The Nelsons, recently found out their new orders. They are a Coast Guard family and, like most military families, they move ever few years. We knew that they would be leaving us, but we thought it would be late spring or early summer. I have been anxiously awaiting the news of their new location, I just had no idea it would mean they would leave in a few weeks!!!


Anyone want to be our neighbors????
We have been in our townhouse for a little over a year. In that time we have become great friends with the Nelsons. We are constantly back and forth at each other's home (babysitting, food, chit-chat). We not only have become close to Martina and Jonathan, but also their children. Emmalyn is their 4 year old and Brody is 8 months. Emmalyn is my special girl and I was so excited to watch the boys become friends, especially now that Brody is catching up with Landon. Who's Landon gonna play with now? He's going to be the only little one on the block!

So, in about 2 weeks, the Nelsons will be headed to Peoria, IL. We actually won't be able to see them off since we will be in Minnesota the weekend they leave. That actually might be a better way to say goodbye! I'm dreading that day. It will be weird to come back home and not have Martina hang out the door to ask how our trip went. It will definitely take some getting used to. Our stretch of homes on Susquehanna just won't be the same!

We will miss you Nelson Family!
