Bye Bye Manhattan

Things We will miss about Manhattan:

1. Kansas State University
2. Our friends
3. Our ward
4. Tommy's family
5. Being two minutes away from Dillons for nightly snack runs
6. being so close to so many memories like Cico hill - where Tommy proposed to Chelsea or Mercy Hospital - where Zach was born
7. being able to run up to Milford when we didn't feel like cooking to get some good home cooking from Tommy's mom
8. Our fireplace
9. Running the hills (Tommy's not mine)
10. It really became our home

Things we won't miss:

1. Kansas summers
2. Kansas winds
3. our stinkin apartment with windows that didn't work, a constantly dripping sink, a broken ac unit on the third floor with sun hitting it all day long equaling crazy energy bills, a bathroom split into two parts of the house, and carpets that were at least 35 years old and incredibly disgusting
4. K-State game traffic
5. the lack of shopping options
6. Being at least two hours away from anything, including airports and temples
7. Omaha
8. Body First
9. Bird poop on our car
10. crazy work and school schedule

Things we're excited about Michigan:

1.  Our new place with TWO bathrooms and THREE bedrooms and a GARAGE 
2. our GARAGE!! Seriously a necessity and a blessing with a baby
3.  We splurged and got dish tv.  Neither of us have had it in 4 years.  we love love love it!  I can't believe how much I love having something on in the background while I'm working on something
4. Having a piano, Chelsea may learn to play fluently yet!
5. the weather here
6. being closer to Chelsea's family/Chicago
7. getting time to spend with the Wrights (we feel cheated they're leaving us so soon...)
8. Our awesome neighborhood
9. the ward
10. Have a new place to explore and learn and grow from and for Zach to grow up in.
