Moving: Phase One

Moving turned out to be nothing short

of an adventure.

And the fact that we have to do it again

in a few months makes me

SO excited.

(Sarcasm, sarcasm)

This is the first time Brett and I have moved

as a married couple.

Over the past 7.5 years,

we have accumulated 

a lot

of stuff.

But, thanks to the Carter boys,

we got all the big stuff moved on Saturday.

We had enough of our things to stay over in the new place that night.

But wait!

What about the heat?

Apparently, the gas company does not work on Saturdays,

and 55 degrees was just a little too cold for us.

So we hauled mattresses, pillows, blankets and pjs

back to the old house to sleep in heated peace.

Sunday was more of the same.

Brett and I would take turns running over to the new place

for necessities; cereal, milk, church clothes, toilet paper.

(see, there was logic behind the 300 foot move)

Monday we finally got the heat turned on,

re-moved all of our stuff,

and are now officially in our new (temporary) home.

Now we're just trying to figure out what our next move (literally and figuratively) is.
We've toyed around with the idea of building,
but are thinking that buying an existing home might be the
better choice for us financially.
So, the search for the perfect home (and neighborhood) continues!
