The BIG Move

This post and these pics are mostly for me I guess... but you can enjoy too :)
Moving was bittersweet. We were so excited about what lay ahead and about FINALLY being together as a family, but we were sad to say goodbye to our house. The only place the 3 little kids have ever known as "home".
It sure was heaven having the movers do ALL the packing though...

They packed, I cleaned, and we managed to get out of there around noon on
Saturday May 15th...

We headed to my Mom's to get Tyson, shower, and have lunch and then to the Dorny's who were nice enough to watch Hallie & Jax for us...
It was sad saying goodbye to such dear friends :( They have been like family to us. Always there when we needed them... no strings attached. Loved us for us. We will truly miss them more than words can describe. Thanks you guys for all you have done for us over the years!!!
Then it was onward to Colorado! The drive took FOREVER!!! We had to make quite a few stops for trailer mishaps, gas, seeing Alan's brother in Grand Junction, getting pulled over for lack of trailer lights ... but we FINALLY pulled in around 1 am...
Spent the night at my Sisters and headed to church bright and early the next day...

Moving in Day was Monday. They unloaded everything in one day and set up all our beds... which was perfect considering Alan had to go out of town and we NEEDED beds :)

Our garage looked like this for a couple weeks... pretty white trash, I know. but we had to get the house unpacked before we could move on to the garage...
Other than the broken washer and no Internet for a week, the move was pretty uneventful... halefreakinluja!
And we are finally "HOME".... for now :)
