We have begun the long, hard process of moving to our new house. George and I have spent so much time going through all our things and trying to get rid of everything we don't want or need. How on earth did we accumulate so much junk??
We knew we wanted some new furniture for the new house. Our friends suggested a really neat place about an hour from us called Greenfront, so one weekend we packed up the kids, a million snacks, and went to check it out. We got a couple neat things, but decided we definitely needed to come back another day WITHOUT kids so we could look around the 9 warehouses full of eclectic furniture.
Cole had a rough day and made sure everyone knew it. At least he can verbalize it...
Trying to get stuff done is hard to do, even when the four oldest are in school!
At least the company is awesome.
George rented a dumpster for us to throw away all the big things we didn't want and couldn't donate. I had my doubts that we would fill it, but when they came to pick it up, it was practically overflowing. And we still had two truckloads of stuff to move! Jude and his buddy Grady had a good time helping us break down the big things. Sledge hammer for the win!
Snowflaked baby!
Jude and his school buddies Hunter (orange) and Joey (green) on a field trip. I'm so glad he has good friends.
While going through our stuff, the kids found some old Halloween costumes. We decided not to keep them, but the kids insisted on trying them on again.

Rub-a-dub-dub, three girls in the tub! Doesn't get much sweeter than this!
We are going to miss this little swing set. The family that bought our house asked if we could leave the trampoline and the play-set. It would be nearly impossible to move anyway, so we agreed, but the kids are disappointed.
