MOVING DAY!

Yesterday was moving day. I can't believe how many people showed up to help us move! People we know and love from both 2nd and 8th ward, and people from the 8th ward that I am sure will be our new friends. I asked Kylee to write down everyone's name so we could send thank you's but she and I didn't know them all. Brother Ashton brought over his huge trailer and loaded up the entire storage unit and brought it over to our new house. Of course, he had tons of help, but the huge trailer made for only one trip instead of many. Brother Empey and Steven made many trips and hooked up the washing machine and then came back and hooked up the stove and frig. They also helped with our food storage last week too. Sister Ashton brought over scones and Sister Hall brought over cookies. Everything was at our new house by about 10:30. Can you believe that??? We started around 8:30. So that was amazing.

Zach is having a crummy time. He is pretty depressed about having to change wards and Priest quorums and the funny little inside jokes they all have. I didn't think he was really close to many of them as he never hangs out with them, but apparently he just likes the fun they have together shoveling people's snow as a surprise, or going camping together, or scripture time by the Bishop during Sunday quorum meeting...

And then today is Kylee's birthday. The house is all in a jumble so I think we will be celebrating later. Oh well! Kaitlin was and still is stuck with that as her birthday was on November 1st and we were in CA then. We did go to Old Country Buffet and have cake and ice cream, but no presents as I did really shop while I was there other than to take David grocery shopping. So we owe a couple of girl's a birthday celebration. Perhaps we will have to surprise them with something. I don't know. I guess we will have to figure something out.
