Moving Day

After a VERY long day, on Saturday May 1st, we finally made it to our new house at about 11pm. We couldn't have done it without tons of help from our wonderful family. First of all, my dad has been working very hard to get electricity and water to our house (not a small feat when your up in the mountains). Valarie came up the day before Téa's party and helped with last minute birthday stuff and also helped load the Uhaul after the birthday party. She was such a trooper. My Cousin Jennifer and her daughter Avery came down for the birthday party and went way above and beyond by staying and helping load the Uhaul as well. Lastly, a special thanks to my mom who also helped load the Uhaul, helped unload it the next day, helped me unpack things in the new house and arrange furniture. We truly are blessed and I don't know what we would have done without all of their help. The house is by no means finished but we got about 80% of the unpacking done and all of the furniture placed and the beds set up. Now the house will just have to wait for us. As long as baby cooperates, our goal is to make our last trip from Monterey to Suey Creek on Saturday June 5th. For now we are pretty much camping out of our home in Marina. The house is empty and we're living out of boxes and sleeping on blow up mattresses (not the easiest when you're 9 months pregnant). Here's a sneak peek of the house with our stuff in it:
