Saturday Past

Saturday was the "big move" day.  We had already moved the mattresses and most of the kitchen over on St. Patrick's Day and had been sleeping here, in our home, since then.  However, we still had 85.72% of the apartment to move.  And guess what we woke up to on "big move day"?

Can you see it?  The swiftly falling flakes of fluffy white snow?

This is the winter wonderland scene from my bedroom.  Aren't I lucky?

Despite the snow, our amazing and wonderful friends brought their pickup trucks and burly arms in the morning and early afternoon.  After they were through, we were mostly moved into our new house.  And most of that fresh snow was melted.

 
But, when you spend your last week of living in your apartment painting your new house instead of packing, this is what you get at the end of "big move day":

Throughout the move, some young friends and I were just going around the apartment throwing stuff into boxes...and now those boxes are all around our new house waiting to be unpacked, sorted and put away.  We've already unpacked a lot, so it's not all bad, but it sure did look icky at first.

We made sure to relax after a long week of work.  We watched Tangled with Kurt and Sharon that night.  It was a fun movie.  Listening to Owen laugh was, as usual, the best part of the movie.  After everyone went to bed, Jonathan made sure all was well with the newly set up internet.  :)
