we did it! MOVED!

Once again I've been away from the blog- and I'm heading out of town for the next week.  But I will be back in July! Promise!!

We did move, and it was a lot of work, and that's one of my excuses for lack of computer time!

The move happened in stages (I'm still not sure if that was a good plan or not, but it's what we did, and it worked).  The kids and I started moving stuff upstairs (from the 2nd floor to the 8th floor) on Tuesday - the same day that workers moved our curtains and our air conditioning units.  Cool air and privacy drove us upstairs  - ha!

The first day we moved what we could carry, and it was a lot!  My kids worked so hard!!!  And that night we slept on our mattresses in the new house - but no bed frames.... too heavy for us!


The rest of that week we gradually moved things upstairs.  More and more furniture, and using a moving cart we got some pretty heavy stuff moved too.  The girls and I did the kitchen one day and it went great!


Luke was my most faithful helper!  I am not even kidding!  He worked so hard and pushed this little cart so many trips!


And he - and everyone else - is loving this favorite spot in our new place!

then on Saturday Matt led the charge and we had tons of people show up to help!  It was such an encouragement to be surrounded by so many friends who sweated and carried and just generally loved and served our family so well.


So it was a little wild for a while but we did it!  MOVED!
