The Move: Le Grand
Posted on Wednesday, November 5th, 2008 at 2:34 amWe did it! Our move, to the town known on here as Le Grand, has happened! We are referring to it as Le Grand because it only has 13,000 folks in it – and that makes me a little nervous.
We moved on Saturday November 1st – with wonderful help from Papa, KK, Auntie Lyndsy, Uncle Jon, Patti (who watched the boys), Doug, Goosey, and the Tom & Autumn family.
Here is the story, in pictures:

Here we go!
Papa was quite the mover and shaker!
Doug – a freaking hard worker and a seriously funny guy!
I loved getting to work around Jon – hard work and good conversation!

The boys spent the first night with Papa and KK, and then came out to the new place on Sunday after we bought our first new couch. It gave us time to get their room all set-up, do some set-up in ours, and make the place comfy for them. They both slept in their rooms, through the night – so we must have done a good job!
