Finally, it's done!!

I am always recommending everyone start there own blog.. but don't try and keep up with it while trying to move.   

Our move is finally done!!  Thank goodness!  It felt as though we would never be moved.  We were packing for weeks, disposing of anything that we felt we could part with! And, the trash!  We had a pile of trash for the trash-man that was soo huge, the neighbors couldn't believe it!  I guess we got a little consumed with what we "felt" was important.. then we said the hell with it!  All for the best.

We moved down here to Hemet on Sunday, the 20th.  We were able to pick up the moving truck a day early which was perfect, so Sam and I were able to load it in around 6 1/2 hours.  Dan was able to meet us in Hemet, late that evening.. we all stayed at parents, seeing how our new home was unfurnished.

My mom made us a great breakfast (as she always does) on Monday, and the boys went off to unload the moving truck.  Which took another day.  On Tuesday, Sam and I were able to unpack the essentials and get things organized, that evening was our first night here.  

All I can say, is thank goodness we moved on Sunday and not any later.  There is a huge storm over California and particularly the areas that we travel on.  Take a look at some of these photos taken of the Grapevine, it is completely covered in snow.  (We have to take the Grapevine to get to 210 fwy, in order to arrive in Hemet)

I hope by Monday, things well calm down and we can return to our routine.  And hopefully, I'll be more consistent with our blogging.  Hope all is well with everyone.

Look what happens to the CA storms when they hit RIfle!

Glad you guys are moved in. I'm just going to put price tags on everything and have a week long garage sale...that will be easier than finding people to help us move.

Hi Hon,
I am so so happy that you were not caught up in that terrible storm along the grapevine pass. We all realize that the nightmare move is now over and you and the family can settle in your new home in the beautiful Hemet Valley. The hills are green and the mountain tops that surround this beautiful valley are filled with snow. The air quality here is much much better than in Bakersfield.
Love you, Mom
