The last few weekends have been spent packing up the house. We are hoping the snow is behind us as we have both of our cars parked outside so we can use the garage to store boxes and furniture. I do have to admit, it's been weird packing everything up. We've lived here for over 10 years, this is the only house the girls ... well, Makayla, has ever known. It sure will be an emotional day when we shut the front door for the very last time. Though, we will not miss those entryway spiders!
Next Wednesday we will begin to load the moving truck with the help of Dwight's friends. We will also have our final walk through of our new home in the evening. After the moving truck is loaded, we will drive it to my friend's hobby farm to park it over night.
Next Thursday will begin our chaos, lots of stuff to do before the closing on our townhome at 8:30a. Mister needs to be dropped off at the boarding place, Allie needs to be dropped off at the sitter and Makayla needs to be dropped off with our old neighbors (who used to live in our association and now live down the street from our new house) so they can take her to school. We will have an hour between closings, our new home is at 10:30a. We will break for lunch and then let the unpacking begin!
We had to make a few purchases for our new place like a washer and dryer and then we bought new family room furniture. We still need a lawn mower and a few odds and ends that need to be repaired and switched out. Makayla picked out paint for her room and then a friend at work will be coming over to measure for a possible window seat and shelving in both girls rooms. We can't wait to make this our new home with new memories. Feeling excited, overwhelmed and stressed!
