Ok...let me explain :)
As of yesterday at 4:00 pm, they sold their home. My childhood home. The home that I grew up in. Literally, I lived in that home from the age of 5 until I hit 19. Then, I still visited them and it was "home". Until yesterday. Every Christmas Eve, the family would gather at that house-Mom would do an "open house" where we'd have food, gifts & fun. We had the same phone number from the time we moved in until about a month ago when they decided to disconnect the landline. Mom had told me that they would be disconnecting it on a certain day, so I made a point to call that number one more time and oops-I did it too late. Bummer! We were able to visit one last time, but at that point pretty much everything was moved out so it was obviously not the same. They close on the new house tomorrow. We'll still have visits & fun times-MOM: I hope you're still planning on the Christmas Eve Open House!! We'll make new memories. We'll always have the memories...and each other!
Here are some pics of my childhood home:
