Load 'em Up and Move 'em Out!

A trip to Lowe's.....

PLUS lots of Sharpies, pens, and scissors...

PLUS lots of packing tape.....

EQUAL......

LOTS....
and LOTS.....

and LOTS of boxes!

Last weekend, my parents, Russ, and I began the process of packing up our stuff to move it all out! Praying that our house closes as it is supposed to sometime this month, we decided the best time to move our things would be BEFORE football started. So, we began. We spent a long weekend in Jackson packing...staying up until 3 AM deliriously laughing at everything and acting...well...like my family acts! Ha! We had a great time! I know I can't speak for everyone, but it was fun. At least looking back on it now! Ha!

We had visits from friends during our time in town. Pat, Felicia, and Toby came by to visit for a while one night. Rachael brought her pregnant self over and we ate at Bonsai for lunch on Monday. We also got to visit with Kristin and Lee while we were in town.

Aside from those visits....it was work, work, work. Mama and Russ had to get back to work Monday afternoon, so we had to make sure all the hard work was finished before half our crew left us.

Tuesday morning, the moving truck arrived, and the movers began their movin'!

Look at all that trash! We actually had a lady peeking into our garbage bags!

Now, that's ONE FULL TRUCK!


Since our house hasn't closed yet, we haven't moved into a place yet. So, we had all our belongings moved into storage.

The crew worked tirelessly after their 4+ hour drive to move everything and store it just right so that everything could fit. I never knew TWO people could accumulate so much STUFF!

Boxes...

Furniture...

Tight Squeeze!

We had the best movers! They were so friendly, helpful, and worked so hard! Thanks Bo's Cleaning and Moving Service! I'm sure we'll be calling you again for our next move...into our OWN HOME!


Then, we'll be loading 'em up and moving 'em out AGAIN! Ha!

We used them to unload our furniture when we moved back to Corinth from Brandon a few years ago. They were awesome! Everything unloaded, furniture placed and beds put together in two hours!

Wow! Y'all didn't have an inch to spare in that storage place.

It will be more fun to unload it in a new place. I know the movers are looking forward to moving that piano again! Ha!
