Moving Day # 1

Well, today was the start of the "Big Move". I headed over to Lisa's around 10:00 this morning. Ken's parents also came over to help too. So, we filled to the brim all three of our vehicles and then headed to the new house. We were able to unload and unpack her whole kitchen. All the kids hangup clothes, most of the kids toys and all of their frames and collectible/breakable stuff. Around 3:00 - Ken and his dad arrived at the new house with their first big load. By the end of the evening everything we brought over today was unloaded, unpacked and put away. There is not one filled box in the house. Here is Ava's filled closet and . . . . Ava checking out her new ceiling fan in her room.
Ken's mom stocked the pantry.
I was suppose to meet my friend Cindy from Montana for dinner. They are flying in tonight but their plane was delayed which messed up our dinner plans. So, around 6:30 we headed over to Ken's parents house for a wonderful dinner. It was so good. After dinner I went back to Ken and Lisa's old house to load up my van one more time. Tomorrow morning their new furniture is coming so I am going to be there to let them in. I didn't want to just sit there so that is why I loaded up the van so I would have something to do in the morning while waiting for their furniture. They have a bunch of friends who are coming over to help with the furniture. They should be totally moved in by tomorrow afternoon! Here is Landon and Sierra having dinner at Ken's parents . . .it looks like Sierra had a long day!

Dorothy, I had the chance to meet Cindy a few year or so ago when they were here last time but I was really looking forward to seeing her again last night. We are going to try possibly to get together on Sunday night.

De'Etta, the move has gone great so far. Over the last six months I had helped her declutter and weed out a lot of stuff so actually it has been amazingly easy so far :-)
I am probably weird . .. I love to move. . . it gives me a chance to through EVERYTHING we own which gives me a chance to get rid of or give a way what we absolutly do not want or need!
