It’s moving week for our family! Tonight is the last night in our house- I can’t believe it! I’ve lived here for 13 years and I love this house. I am sad to say goodbye, but also so so excited to move to our new house.
Yesterday, we did our final walk-through. The sellers are building a new house and will be living with family until the house is complete, so they had some flexibility on their move-out day. They moved out last weekend and so we got to do our walk through early and the whole house was empty, clean and ready for us! Today we had a cleaning crew out (even though they left it SO clean!). The sellers were SO nice and were so kind to return to the house to let the cleaning crew in. I was so grateful and I popped by to drop off some moving cookies and to say thank you.
In the midst of LONG days of packing, my cookie orders were still coming in and I was still filling them. I could have said no, but it was a nice break- pack some boxes, bake some cookies, pack some boxes, bake some cookies… not bad.

Tonight, our house is 99% packed. We have random things here and there that need to get packed in the morning, but the garage, the porch and the dining room are filled with boxes. The movers will arrive first thing in the morning and the adventure will begin. Grandma Debbie is picking the boys up from school and they are spending the night at her house- they are VERY excited! Nate and I have several long days of unpacking ahead, but I am so excited to get everything organized and do even more de-cluttering (we did a lot as we packed, but I think we can get rid of even more stuff as we unpack).
It’s been an exhausting week of packing and we’ve got some busy days ahead, but so far, we’ve been pretty organized, followed our day by day plan, and it’s been smooth. I hope tomorrow is the same!
