Moving Day 1

Yesterday was day 1 of the move. Oh how excited I was to see that big truck pull up in my driveway. I've admired it sitting in other people's driveway for the last 3 years and each time I would comment, "Oh how I can't wait to see that truck at my house," or "maybe I should go in and tell them they are at the wrong house and send them my way!" But yesterday was FINALLY my day. If no one has ever moved with movers...then you should! It IS the way to go. There is nothing better than getting to set back and relax while all your stuff is boxed up and shipped off for you. Never again will I lift my own couch!!!! **crossing fingers!**

Lots of military families will talk about the awful time they have with their movers. I've been blessed. When we moved here our movers were great. They took extra care and were very friendly. And our stuff made it here with only the knobs on Logan's dresser messed up and a broken printer...which was a cheapo anyway! So no biggie. This time I think we were just as blessed. The guys that showed up yesterday were super nice and friendly. We all cut up and had a good time yesterday. They worked super hard and had my whole house almost completely packed in one day. Yeah, they are good!

The boys were at school all day yesterday. I was leaving to take them when the movers showed up. So it was a major shock to the boys when they walked in and saw nothing but boxes. This is Lane when he walked in the toy room...We tried to take our time getting home. Running to Walmart and eating out...since there is nothing to cook with at the house...but we made it home around 7:30. They were messing with everything. Lane even picked up every curtain rod he could find and held it up to me and said "fight!" We all slept in the same bed last night. I could have left the boys' beds up but we cuddled up and did the family thing last night...our last night in this house!!!!

So now we are on day 2. The movers are working and I'm about to start cleaning.
