Getting Gone

We are officially out of our home {bittersweet}.
Movers came last week and had the entire house packed and loaded all in one day.
It was a whirlwind of chaos, but very efficient and kinda nice that it all happened at once. We basically moved everything we didn't want packed into one main room and told the packers to steer clear of that room.
Oh my goodness it was a disaster! We couldn't even walk in the room at one point...but slowly we got it all organized and somehow made it out!
Right now we are in Albuquerque. We left Portales on Tuesday and we will leave here on Saturday. We don't actually have our plane tickets yet, so still no word on our actual leave date...we have a general time frame.
As it gets closer we get a bit more nervous, but deep down we are just excited and ready to get there!
{Break time during the move!}

Goodbye Sweet Romeo

Today Jon and I drove to Dallas and said goodbye to my sweet Romeo. It was a hard goodbye to make, but a very necessary one. We figured it was just another car payment, and since the AF wouldn't store it, our best option was to sell. He was a great little vehicle for me and my first big purchase with Jon. This Jeep brought us to Abilene, and brought our baby boy home from the hospital. Such awesome memories. Goodbye, my friend!
 
Just one step closer to our actual move date! This week is going to be super crazy.
Tomorrow and Monday are set aside for organizing the house between items we are going to store and ones we will take. Movers will be here Tuesday to start packing!
