Well I think we might actually make it. I fell so unprepared! My house is not done being packed, work is CRAZY BUSY which makes me stress even more and I can't concentrate at work because of the stress of the house which makes work even more stressful! AHH! I think I am making myself sick...
All that to say that I went to my our new house today and saw the paint complete. It looks wonderful! I of course LOVE my red kitchen. My dad worked ALL day on my house, he patched another hole, hung all the bars/racks in the closets, rehung all the lights removed for painting, bought supplies from Home Depot for us, worked on my kitchen sink and I'm sure tons of other stuff that I am leaving out. I don't know where we would be without him! He says that's what dads are for, but I know that I am special, that not all dads would put in that much work, time or energy. I am so thankful for my father!
with all my father's help getting the house ready, it looks like we will hit our goal of moving on Saturday. We hope to start by moving boxes into the house on Friday night so the movers can concentrate on the furniture on Saturday morning. If you are wondering if you can help, we do need a few more people to help Friday night with boxes if you are available, and/or if you have a truck, SUV or a bigger vehicle to put boxes into to move to the new house, that would be great! Moving with a baby (or doing anything with a baby really) can be quite the challenge. If you have time on Friday night or Saturday and would like to spend some time with an adorable baby (Brendan that is) please let me know, we really could use all the help we can get.
Once again, that you all for your thoughts, prayers, concerns and encouragement. Sometimes I wonder if all the stress is worth it, I'm sure in a few months, I'll have forgotten all about the stress...

Tawni and I can most likely watch Brendan Friday night if you would like. I'm off that day so Tawni could just pick up Brendan when she gets off work. I will need to run it by her but she will most likely be ok with it since we don't have any major plans.
It must be nice to live so close to your parents to where they can help out like that!
congratulations again on your new home :)
Actually, my parents don't live close. My dad drove 8 hours with his truck full of supplies on Wednesday the 15th, then flew back to Sacramento on the 18th so he could preach on Sunday morning. After teaching his seminary course on Tuesday, he flew back to continue working and will drive back to Sacramento again this weekend. I am very lucky and thankful to have a dad willing to do so much traveling for me and then do that much work!
Rachel, I'll totally watch Brendan for you on friday night. D and I will be home all night . . Let me know if you think I'm special enough.
that makes it even more special! :)
