Never Move One Week Before Your Wedding!

We have officially moved. Our goal was to have everything moved out on the 23rd, however I came down with a terrible sickness. I was pretty sick for 10 days. I wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy. Infact, if you told me you had the same thing, I'd want to buy you flowers and a get well balloon. ; P Due to being sick, I didn't have everything that I wanted to have packed on the 23rd so we needed a second moving party.

Friday night Dave pointed out that I grossly under estimated the size of vehicle I would need to move the rest of our stuff. This was when we made the call to U-haul and got the bad news that there were no more trucks for the weekend.

I go into panic mode, "Daddy"!

I called my dad. He gave me a hard time and I'm sure he still wonders how I get myself into these situations. He made a couple phone calls and put the word out to his fellow Mason brethren, as well as family and neighbors. He had quite few volunteers by mid afternoon on Saturday. My uncle and a neighbor showed up early. They were done at about noon, but I'm not to sure, it's all a blur. Hey they even helped me finish packing. I am also very grateful to my friend John who was able to help with the first load. I'll have to say, we made it at the last minute. I turned the key over to my landlord at about 11pm.

There are a couple problems still. What do I do with all this stuff I have? My poor dad can't park his car in the garage due to the plethora of boxes that are in the way. He's not too happy about this. This was not part of the deal. Oh, I forgot to mention. My parents are letting Dave and I move in. They are helping us get a good start.

Ok now that the moving is done, let the fun begin. Now it is time to finish the wedding details! I'm so excited. Oh oh oh !
