WE MOVED

MOVING!! Does everyone hate it as much as I do? I am trying to figure out where I got so much stuff. Junk? No, stuff. I don’t know how I accumulated so much in only three years. It has been three years since the Campfire, and my stuff filled a 26 ft. truck. Full. Crazy right

Well, I at least tried to be as organized as possible. I started packing a month early. I marked all the boxes with what was in them and where they were to go. I was organized. We closed early on the house that I sold, and I requested an extra week to move into my new home, which had not closed yet. I also didn’t want to move on Christmas. I was denied that. I had to pack up the rest of my house in three days, and we went to a motel for seven days, including Christmas.

My kids were pretty good sports considering. They were couped up in a small room with no toys and no idea they were missing Christmas. I did get them some toys to have something to play with in the room, but I had packed all their Christmas Presents as I planned on having our Christmas on New Year’s Eve day. I am grateful that my kids are small enough that they didn’t realize that they were missing Christmas day.

Moving with kids is an adventure, but it’s even more of an experience when it’s raining. Mud tracked into the new house boxes everywhere and kids wet and screaming. It was a nightmare. We survived and are now in our new home. I am hoping that I get back to my blogging schedule and we can get back on track. See you then.
