OKay... Today is the moving day... ::crying:: but I want to file
every memory away that I have of this neighborhood.... so i'm going to
do the best i can! To start from the beginning:
Meeting the Kapps: wow! we were playing ring-around-the-rosie with
my grandmother... mom was in the hospital having Ashley... (wow!
Ashley's known the Kapps since she was born!) Honestly the only reason
I went to the Kapps house to meet them was because they had that cool
washing machine toy that I wanted to play with! (can ya blame me? I was
6-7 ish)
Meeting the Howatts: We hated eachother in the beginning b/c they
were boys and we were girls... that lasted what... six seven years?
DHK club (haha!)- we had one meeting really... around that old
filing cabinet in the back yard... it may be rusted, but it's
still the main source of the DHK spirit!
Disney- that was more than amazing. Everything was perfect that
week! we met up sooo many times.... i miss it! Taffy, Tower of Terror
(Meg to Meg- "i'm gonna kill you MEGAN!" [as we go flying down the
elevator shoot])
Hockey- I think Kyle pretty much gave up the thought of EVER
teaching us how to play hockey the "right" way!!!! haha... boys are
losers anyway!
"play camping"- from the camper in the boys back yard, to our
camper, we had some amazing times! jeez.... when the bed in ours broke
0.o that was scary! the "tv" game (ants squished the
elephants!!!!!)!!!!! DREAM STREET!!!! (i NEVER listened to them.... ) wow! amazing times!
camping in the back yard- Meg with the marshamellows in the hair!!!
me running down the street, waving my bra in the air! (that actually
NEVER happened, it was just an idea we had) the boys trying to scare
us....
movie night- screaming through the house! Mitch waking me up!!!!! "Wow, Michaela your really hot!" -hahahahaha Megan!
Hotel night- food all over the room... that was sooo much fun.
between the snowball fights, to the forts we built... I love all of
my neighbors sooo much... I'll miss you! I can't remember everything we
ever did... but you guys rock my non-exhistant-at-the-moment socks!

hope you never lose your sense of wonder You get your fill to eat But always keep that hunger May you never take one single breath for granted God forbid love ever leave you empty handed I hope you still feel small When you stand by the ocean Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance I hope you dance I hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance Never settle for the path of least resistance Living might mean taking chances But they're worth taking Lovin' might be a mistake But it's worth making Don't let some hell bent heart Leave you bitter When you come close to selling out Reconsider Give the heavens above More than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance I hope you dance (Time is a real and constant motion always) I hope you dance (Rolling us along) I hope you dance (Tell me who) I hope you dance (Wants to look back on their youth and wonder) (Where those years have gone)
I hope you still feel small When you stand by the ocean Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance Dance I hope you dance I hope you dance (Time is a real and constant motion always) I hope you dance (Rolling us along) I hope you dance (Tell me who) (Wants to look back on their youth and wonder) I hope you dance
Seriously I hope you dance! I love you all so much and I want you to
live life to the fullest. We'll be back more often than you'd like...
.but we do love you guys... we're not moving b/c we don't want you as
neighbors... we're moving b/c our house is just too small... you have
no idea how much all of us don't want to move. Dance your hearts out...
even when things are falling apart; go for it. Never stop living and
loving. You all have so much to go for. I love you all!
