Our neighborhood has had a lot of people moving away recently including the houses on either side of us. On one side, the neighbors have been moved in for several months but on the other side, the house had been for sale for around 9 months or so. That house just recently sold so we have brand new neighbors there.

Two doors down and about 50 feet away is where Hunter, Marcy and Aubry lived for nearly 7 years. The girls have come and gone to each other's homes usually a few times a week and they've had lots and lots of sleepovers. It was fun for Marcy and I too because we would take walks, borrow ingredients to cook with, chat while working in the yard, or just walk over to each other's home when we would go out. But they are building a very nice home about 1/2 hour away and put their house on the market. They were very fortunate to sell it w/in about two weeks so they have now moved out of their home and into a nearby apartment. It's a little odd not to have them there anymore but just Friday, we all went out to eat and Aubry stayed over so it won't stop us from doing things together. Their house construction is coming along nicely and can be seen at Marcy's blog.
