Top 10 reasons I will miss Provo (in no particular order)....
1. The wonderful friends and family we have there... I love you all and leaving was so hard (many tears were shed)!! The only comfort I feel is knowing that we WILL keep in touch - thank goodness for blogs! :)
2. Our wonderful ward. I LOVED living within 4 blocks of everyone in our ward... not to mention walking to church every Sunday.
3. The great neighbors (especially the family next door). Seth 7 and Brady 9 were Jacks best friends! Everytime he saw them he would get SO excited! Whenever we were outside he would try and walk to their house (while waving good-bye to me). They were the best kids and played so well with Jack. I love them and I will miss them!
4. The mountains. There is something so wonderful and peaceful about being able to see the beautiful mountains everytime you step outside!
5. The Provo River bike trail. Oh how I will miss the many walks Jack and I have taken on the bike trail. It was just a couple minutes from our house and Jack and I took advantage of it often!
6. Great places to eat! Namely: Cafe Rio, The Bombay House, and J-Dawgs (where will I ever get another J- Dawg???!)
7. Having the opportunity to sing in the Jenny Phillips Choir! What an amazing opportunity that was. I love Jenny! If you haven't heard of her or her music... you should! I believe she's the most talented LDS recording artist out there!
8. Filling up our tank of gas every other week or so. Everything you need is SO close... it's wonderful!
9. The snow (but only a little). I know I complained about the LONG winters (and I don't take that back) I did like the snow for the first couple of months. It can be so cozy!
10. Our house! I LOVED our house. It was just perfect for us.
Good-bye Provo! You've been good to us! We will miss you!

Cindy you are making me cry!!!! :( We miss you! You are right, thank goodness for blogs! How was your drive and getting your house all packed up and taken care of?? Keep posting!
It really is hard to leave Provo. I remember crying the night we drove away. But you often don't realize the neat people and places you are about to encounter upon moving. You're just about to expand your list of cherished friends, and blogs are a huge blessing in keeping in touch with those friends you left behind.
We miss you SO MUCH! You don't even know! Not a day has gone by that I haven't thought about you. I kept checking to see if you'd post on your blog! I was so excited to see you had!
I am so sad, and I feel really bad!! I have been thinking of you a lot lately and I am really mad at myself for not seeing you before you left. The regrets I have not spending more time with you while you were here. Please stay in touch. I think you are just an amazing person and I am glad I can call you family. I love ya tons and wish you the best of luck in your new adventure. Please tell Jared good luck for me also!
You are making miss Provo too. It is such a great place with such a great atmosphere. I am glad you will be closer to us though!
I like the shirts you guys wore, even though I have no clue what they stand for. Maybe I will have to read the books, sometime!?
Excited to see you soon!
You are definitely missed, Cindy. I can attest to that for friends AND ward. It's not the same without you. But I envy that you're off on a new adventure. Can't wait to hear all about it!
Good luck on your move!
I miss those things about Provo too. It was a harder move than I though it was going to be. So are you all settled in? I hope everything is going well for you guys!
Wow. I just spent many minutes looking at your blog and having fun memories with you too. You are definitely missed. I don't even know if we will be able to be friends with the people who bought your house! Those meanies!!! Hope everything is going well in California. We hope to visit sometime, it is Ky's favorite place. (although we don't really know why...maybe Disneyland!) Miss you loads!!
