Farewell to our home sweet home...

This was the scene at our house this week. Boxes and more boxes everywhere. We are so thankful for the wonderful friends and family who came to help us move our stuff into our storage unit today. We're headed to live with my mom and dad until our other house is finished.

The kids have been troopers this week helping us pack and clean. And, when they aren't helping, they've kept themselves occupied by building forts out of the boxes.
Tonight we're basically in an empty house. We still have our mattresses, the computer and a few other things that we're taking with us to my parents' house. We're not closing until Monday, so we're going to spend two last nights in our almost empty house. We've lived here for 7 happy years, and we're just not quite ready to give it up.
Drew and Brady didn't want to sleep in their empty room tonight, so they convinced Grant to let them sleep in his empty room instead. I had to snap a picture of my 3 snoozing kids on our last weekend here. They were so sweet before falling asleep when they were chatting about all of their favorite memories of this house. Lots of good times!

What do I need to do to post comments on your new house blog? It looks awesome with the roof and everything.
