Moving Mania

Moving Mania TOP 10:

1. It took 16 hours to move WITH the help of movers. Started at 10:30 AM and I heard we finished at 3 in the morning. I finally crashed out at 2...

2. We missed the water guy and so we realized late Friday night that we had no water. I think that having no water is the worst utility that can be out. Much worse than no electricity. Some friends from church came over late and somehow managed to turn on our water for us. We may get a fine for doing it ourselves....but that is much better than all weekend without water right?!

3. On moving day Cerly was sick so we spent the afternoon at the doctor office.

4. Brandon was working moving day so I was holding down the fort with my friend Kristi. (thanks Kristi for helping with the kids!) I made several fast food rounds to keep the movers full so they could keep working!

5. I get the girls to my parents to stay the night (thanks mom and dad) and realize that I didn't pack pull-ups, diapers, or pajamas. I did remember their antibiotics so that was a plus.

6. Cable guy comes and just when he is setting ours up they have a big cable outage. So still no TV. But I am not complaining...we have water and internet ha :)

7. Around 10 PM the moving company had to send 3 more movers because they realized they were still hours of away from being done.

8. They packed the storage top to bottom to fit it all in there. It is a huge storage but we put over half of our stuff in it so it was packed full. They barely got the last thing in there and then locked it up.

9. The next morning we realized that about 7-8 boxes of our stuff got sent to storage instead of our house. All of shoes, sleeping clothes, hair dryer, the list goes on and on. Pretty much everything that we needed to make it to church on Sunday. We have no idea how this happened. Brandon said there was no way we could go find it ourselves because the storage is packed top to bottom. So...last night we went to the store and each got some shoes for church and a hair dryer. We hope to have the movers come back in a week or two (once we have recovered!) and help us find our stuff!

10. My parents brought the girls home last night and we all made it through our first night in the new rental house!

I didn't think we would ever get there...but we did. So we are done moving...well kind of. I guess until we can spend a few hours finding our stuff. What a mess. Definitely moving mania!!!!!

Time to get ready for church. This is what Cerly is doing while I type this--learning to play dress up. She wants to be like big sister so bad :)
