Packing, Glorious Packing

This is our first BIG move and I do have to say it will be a LONG time before we do this again.  How much randomness can one family accumulate in 7 years?  A lot!!

So last weekend we decided to have a very last minute yard sale.  We did pretty good, came out with about $100.  It's funny you put stuff on the curb with a FREE sign on it and anyone will take it.  And now with technology like it is there are so many "yard sale" sites on facebook that we have been able to get rid of a bunch more of our stuff.

So not much "new" news on the home front other than packing, packing and more packing.  The kids go to bed at 7 and for the next 2 hours we pack and clean and then crash.  Zander & Gideon have now "lost" their playroom for the time being:

the new playroom will be a total upgrade :)

Now the planning and shopping for the new house.  First projects are going to be the bathroom upstairs and the kitchen.  But I did make our first purchase which I was going to take a picture of but it's all the way at the back of the packed room...so that's not going to happen.  I bought a ladder off of a yard sale site on facebook to do this:

Excited for the finished product.  Well now that I've wasted some time writing this better get back to attempting to pack along with keeping a 2 year old entertained while 3/4 of his toys are packed.
