Note: I wrote this the night before we got on a plane to head to Alaska for 20 days. Very delayed in posting this but still a big event in our Mehringer lives and something I want to remember.
We are plum tuckered out! Like...could sleep a few days to finally feel normal again kind of tired. BUT we are moved into our home and couldn't be more thankful for this new place.
First, we had an AMAZING team of guys who moved our things in 2 hours. 2 hours!!! I couldn't believe how efficient they were and careful at the same time. It blessed me to hear them laugh, joke around and {for some} even whistle while they went to and from. My sweet friend Jen kept our girls for the morning so I could work without interruption. Her thoughtfulness allowed me to move out and back in my entire kitchen. Everything was where I wanted it when I went to pick up the girls at 1pm. Thank you Jen! Moving day would have looked a lot differently for me had it not been for you.
Next, we spent ALL day Monday getting things out of boxes, putting stuff up on the walls and turning this place into our little home. This was all possible thanks to our beloved Marmee! She picked up the girls at 8:30am and her and Papa both brought them back that night by 7:30pm. Matt and I couldn't believe how much we were able to accomplish, how easy it was to jump in the car, grab a few things at Lowes, to pick up lunch on the way back, inhale {well almost} our food and then to have 7 hours left of intense measuring, nailing, drilling, assembling and all out decorating. What a supportive hubby I have to devote a whole day to this!
I have lots of rearranging and organizing to do. But that's the fun part. And it will come in time. I just need to be patient.
