Moving day

For those of you that don't know, we bought a house! We just moved in about a week and a half ago. Moving day went really great thanks to all of our help: Keri and Grandma for watching all the kids, and Steve, Grant, Jarad, and Grandpa for doing all the heavy lifting.

The kids helping out at the old apartment. Avie said she was making sure the floor was packed properly (with the paper).

Breakfast at the new house before we moved in. Using the few boxes we already had there. Perfect size for the kids.

We rented a truck and a two wheeler and were able to get everything we own in one trip.

And our moving crew taking a much deserved break for lunch at the new house.

We only had one minor set back during the move.

Q: How many grown men does it take to get a queen size box spring up the stairs?
A: More than 4.

We have been waiting to buy a new bed for a long time, but our last couple of apartments have been too small, so we've continued to use our old full size bed (which was Camille's parents old bed). So now that we are moving into our own house, Jarad went to Sam's Club the morning of our moving day to purchase a new queen size bed, so we would not have to pay for delivery.

After several attempts, the guys realized there was no way we were going to get the queen box spring up the stairs. Finally, Steve says "this is why you should get a king bed because the box spring is two twins. So we decided this was a great idea! Steve and Jarad took the truck back to Sam's Club and returned the queen bed and purchase a king bed. So, now, we have a new king size bed and we love it! :)
