{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"Today will be one of the saddest days of my life. Today is the day that I do the final move out from Lily Pond. I love that house and I have a personal relationship with every single room of that home. I hope the new owners take care of it as well as I did and I will love it forever. #thehousethatbuiltme,” she wrote in the post.

I stopped at the top of the hill where I planted one of 6 tree lines of evergreen trees and 200 daffodil bulbs —-I just looked at the house, I prayed the next owners would be kind to it and love it as I did—- I cried and cried,” she wrote in the lengthy Instagram caption.

“I went inside and said bye to every single room in the house and thanked each for giving us love and shelter, a warm place to grow and a true home to be happy,” the “Semi Homemade” host continued.
