The Move

Okay, so it's actually been a month since we moved, but I never really wrote about it. No time like the present! The move itself was...not fun. We thought we were really prepared, we packed as much as we thought we could ahead of time. Let's just say you should never ask us to help you move, because we stink at it! We were up at 6:30 Saturday morning and didn't finish until 11pm in Tampa, and we didn't even get the truck unloaded that day! We had to unload it the next day because it took us so long to finish everything in Gainesville that we were exhausted by the time we finally made it down south. The day started with us dumping a full can of paint down the stairs (of course it opened and spun all the way from the top to the bottom). And really, it didn't get much better from there. I do have to say though, Jesson and I both agreed that we LOVED walking away from that house for the last time, we do not miss it at all! Below are the few pictures we did get that were move related, and they're not much.

When we were moving things out of the old house it was much easier to just leave the door open and go back and forth to the truck, rather than having to open and shut the door. This left us with a dilemma as to what to do with the dogs. They couldn't run around on their own, and we didn't have a back yard to put them in. If we closed them in a bedroom they would scratch the door. So we put up the baby gate and they watched us as best they could. They weren't happy about it, but they survived.

Buddy helped us unpack at the new house. Yes, that is him sleeping on our office floor. We didn't get much work out of him that day.
