Helping hands


What would we do without good family to help us out? Unfortunately with this move I'm not going to be much of a help since my stomach is protruding quite nicely. So luckily we live close enough to have people come to us! We closed on our house Dec. 23 . . . what a Christmas present! So a few days later, Ashley and Bobby came out to help clean bathrooms and toliets and to help paint! I'm sure it is just what they wanted to do! But now we have beautiful blue and pink bedrooms just waiting for the kiddos. Brandi, Dave and the boys came out to visit and of course we put them to work too. Brandi helped unpack the guest room and get everything extra into the closet! We made a "game" for the boys and had them run around and see who could find the most stickers on our stuff (the movers put numbered stickers on EVERYTHING) to keep track of it). What a help to get all those off!



My mom came on Saturday and did so much. I didn't even know how to thank her. She basically unpacked the upstairs for me and got it all organized. The kids rooms, closets, bathrooms and playrooms. I'm so sore and achy all the time, so it was great to be able to JUST watch the kids and let her work on everything else that needed to be done! Moving with kids is like a 10 person job!

Thank you so much to everyone that helped!!!
