Homelessness
Today was the last day in our house before the renter moves in. We’re very excited that someone will be living there (and paying the bills) while we’re gone, but it was still a little bittersweet to see it completely empty.
It was also a little scary to see our bags with the only things we’ll have for the next year. They looked so small sitting in the big empty house!
We’ve been spending the last week packing, making trips to storage, and saying goodbye to family and friends. We’ve also been doing those last time visits to our favorite food places – I’m really going to miss In-N-Out and Wahoo’s fish tacos!
It’s been exhausting, but it’s finally time. I still can’t believe we’re leaving tomorrow. Happy Halloween to everyone!

Hi Ellyse,
Seeing your bags bring back memories of the excitement of starting out to Africa last January. We are jealous :). Have a great trip!!
