moving day

Our moving got under way last Saturday! We always feel like we try to prepare as much as possible, but we never feel ready when the movers arrive. We were so fortunate to have some good friends from work - Cole, Chad and Nick - help us with the big stuff!

These guys are so sweet - they gave up the first sunny day Pittsburgh has had in weeks to help us load up our couch, bed, washer and dryer (always the worst) and all sorts of other odd items we have accumulated. They even appeared to be having fun?! Perhaps just an act! Regardless, they are dear friends and we are so blessed to have them in our lives.


Here is Chad making every load count




Here is Dave and Nick. It is fun because Nick works with Dave in the HBP stuff and his wife, Emily works with me in Title.


Once we got to the new house, Dave and the guys took a much deserved break and started to admire the ice cycles. This is one of the smallest one from our winter storms!


Cole, Nick, Chad and Dave


Probably how they really felt about moving.

Thank you so much guys!!

Is it sad that until just reading your blog, I forgot what an icicle was? I've been in Texas way too long :)
Hope you & David are enjoying yourself in Pittsburgh!
