Dear Goats
Dear Goats,
This letter to you has been long awaiting. Tonight is the last night we will be sleeping on the farm. We will miss you all very much. The time we have spent here has been great, but it is finally time for us to move on.
When we first moved here, we wern't sure what to think of you, these animals that now lived in our back yard. We enjoyed some great times with you. Our Labor Day party, with our friends, Rosie and my grandparents visiting the farm. Also the many meals I fed you and leftovers from those summer nights "grillin on the farm".
We have made some great memories here, Family dinners, summer cookouts, quiet weekends and busy weekends. This is where we met our families together the day we got engaged after kayaking on Hopedale pond. Then this is where the party bus picked up the girls for the bachelorette. And finally this is where Amanda got ready before our wedding.
We love the farm so very much, but it just grew too small. We love the landlords, Lucien and Judy, they have been very friendly and helpful through our time here. Plowin the snow with the big tractor, getting the furnace fixed when it wouldnt turn on the first winter and just stopping by in the afternoons to say hi.
So as I write this letter and look at old pics, I am reminded of the good times we've had. But also know all the great memories we will make in our new house. We look forward to those good times but will never forget the farm.
Love,
Sean
