So Close

It's almost time to leave NY. We only have 3 more days. It's happened all so fast. Most of our stuff is packed up and they are coming tomorrow to load it all on the truck tomorrow. The packers weren't the best so hopefully the crew tomorrow will be much better!

Traveling with kids

So as you all know we are moving to Florida and leaving on August 26th. We are going to PA for the weekend and then Sunday night we are going to be leaving around 11pm. Tim's gonna drive thru the night, we plan on stopping for breakfast, then go to a park and then do lunch and then back in the car for nap time. Drive until dinner, have dinner and get a hotel with a swimming pool and try to tire the kids out and then repeat and we should be in Florida on Tuesday. We have the ds, leapster, portable dvd players, books, activity books, and a few toys for in the car. What are some great ideas you've come up with. Traveling for such a long distance with 3 small kids we'll take any ideas possible!!!

A lil bit of everything!

Whew have we been busy!!!!!! Life's been so crazy lately. And it's really starting to hit that we are leaving soon. I just can't believe it. We leave in 10 days!!! So crazy!!! Putting the kids in bed tonight just looking around I was like wow I can't believe our stuff will all be gone from our first house we ever bought. Just crazy.

We went to the fair today with Grandma (Tim's Mom) That was a blast!! We had alot of fun!! The kids were super good and listened very well. They rode rides, had ice cream and so much more!! It was a great day had by all! Thanks again Grandma!!

Things aren't going so great on the housing front:( I really don't know what is going to happen, but we are leaving it in God's hands. I know that things will work out with Him leading the way.

Hmmm what else....Ivy finally popped another tooth! Bout time!! So, she has 2 on the bottom and 3 on the top!!! Children sure do grow up way too fast!!!!

Those are the big things right now. We are just super busy trying to get ready for the move and to fit everything in. Sure is flying by so quickly. We just ask that you all continue to pray for us and our journey. And that something happens with our house soon. THANKS!!!!

No Such Luck :(

Well, the Open House wasn't good :( One couple came thru and said our 'ranch' was too small...UMMMM it's not a ranch! But whatever lol. Then the guy that has been basically playing games with us this past month saying he wants it but really doesn't follow thru came. Um yea he's not buying it, it's just playing games. It's very annoying. I don't have a clue what we're gonna do, starting to freak out some. People keep saying...o it will work out, but really? How? How are we going to pay a mortage, rent and 2 utility payments and have money to live on still? How are we supposed to make that work? I dunno. I know there's a big master plan from the big Man upstairs and I do know in the long run it will work out but I just don't know right now how and I'm getting so nervous. We leave in 16 days :( I dunno guess all there really is to do is pray so that's what I'll continue to do! And we ask that you do as well!

Hectic

That's how life has been lately. Tim was on leave this pack week, which helped tremedously. We were able to de-clutterthe house. And we had our last yard sale this weekend. We didn't have a ton of people, but we did pretty good nontheless.

A guy from the moving company came Friday morning to do our survey of all our household goods. The packers are coming Friday, August 20th and Monday, August 23rd. Then they are going to be loading our stuff on the truck on Tuesday, August 24th. Seems so unreal. We are leaving on Thursday, August 26th. So fast! Only 19 days till we leave....absoltely insane.

We haven't had much luck on the housing front :( We have another Open House tomorrow from 1-3. Praying like crazy that someone wants our house and buys it!!! PLEASE!!!! Say some prayers for us too!!!
