Today is moving day!!!
Yesterday Grandma & Pops spent 7 hours putting together Sophia's new bedroom furniture from Ikea. I love their stuff, but don't have the patience for putting it together. Thankfully I have wonderful parents that were willing to do it!!! Sophia was beaming last night when the big reveal happened. She's elated to have her own room and new furniture!
Tammee helped me in the afternoon bringing all our hanging clothes from the closets. Then our friends Gil & Rebecca also came over to help. Gil (an electrician) installed the ceiling fans in the girl's rooms. And he vacuumed up after himself.....what a guy! Rebecca and I brought a couple loads of boxes over to the new place. Kitchen is set-up now and the girl's bathroom. It's coming together!
Josh installed the tile (that looks like wood floor) in the upstairs entryway. He's worked day & night to make this home fresh & new for us. Thank you honey for all your hard work......we so appreciate it!!!
Our moving crew (aka - friends) will be over at 1:00pm. This is it!!!! FINALLY!!!!

Almost there! Just think a week ago today Josh was tearing out rug and pad! Today you have a whole "remake"!! Looks like new. Pops and I had a good time "making furniture" for our Sophia. Her own grown-up room. And Abby will have fun decorating with her active imagination! so happy for your family. We're looking forward to lots of fun in and outside of the house in the future. It's a perfect entertaining family home. Love G&P
