WOW!!!
What a week…..
Here is the RUNDOWN:
Thursday night we started putting everything IN our house out on the lawn.
Friday afternoon we got our 26 foot UHAUL.
That's right …a 26 footer!!!
Then we proceeded to play tetris till it was full.
We kept loading
and
loading
and loading.
INSANE.
THANKFULLY…..Awesome Aunt Amy and Uncle Jeff came to our rescue and took ALL of our SWEET kids to their house at about 5 PM.
Then…we proceeded to FINISH loading up the rest of the stuff into our vans and Josiah's truck.
Which took the ENTIRE rest of the evening WITH help from ROB, MIKE, JOSIAH and KASEY! (Thank you guys!!!…not that they are reading this.LOL)
AFTER THAT…at about 11 pm- with our vans and the U-Haul PACKED in front of the house -we STARTED to clean the old place.
And when I say CLEAN…I mean that in EVERY sense of the word.
Caulk
Putty
Paint
Steam Clean
Deep Clean
CRAZY CLEAN.
And after ALL THAT….
It was now about 3 AM-----and all the stuff was gone, all the carpets were wet, and everything was packed up.
We were TIRED…
I mean -
“Fall asleep on the hard wood floor with NOTHING tired”
FUN.
We woke up at 6:45….
swept our way OUT THE DOOR and went with a HAPPY HEART to our new HOMESTEAD.
THEN….
We STARTED to UNLOAD…..
And the UNpacking still hasn’t stopped.
There is TONS to do and I AIM to start school again on Monday.
Which entails REBUILDING the schoolroom this week….
Whew!!!!
Oh yeah….
we got here to discover that the TANK to heat the stove is GONE….
So we haven't been able to COOK since we got here.
The tank will be here on Thursday..THANK GOODNESS.
I felt like the WORST MOM EVER with a cart full of FROZEN MICROWAVEABLE food.
AWFUL.
Regardless of the CRAP you go thru when you move…it is ALWAYS worth it in the end.
We have lots of work to do.
BUT
every corner i turn seems to have ENDLERSS POSSIBILITIES!!!!
"Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed."
Proverbs 16:3

Just stopped in for a quick visit. You have a very interesting blog! I like the music and so many pictures.
Hope you enjoy your new home!

p.s. how did you install the music player and how do you put music on? Do I have to own my own songs or can I just get them off the web?
