The Move

this past weekend i we moved to our new home in Andover, IL.  We are still renting, but it is a lot less / month for rent.  I felt guilty asking specifically for help from people so i did just a blanket request via facebook and myspace.  thankfully we had some great help on Saturday and a family from the church let us borrow their truck on Friday so i could run loads to the new place while Amber was at work.  then someone else from the church let us borrow their covered work trailer on Saturday...huge trailer.

Because of such a quick turn around, Amber and i decided to just move all the little things over throughout the week.  We had these plastic bread bins and just kept filling those and then emptying them as we got to the house.  So when it came to Saturday, we had mostly large items and got them all but our grill in one trip.  

Yesterday our new landlords came over and informed us that if we can get our rent in before the 10th of the month, they will shave another $25 off of our rent!!!  super huge blessing.  

so that's about it...  looking forward to the "day of elasticity" on Thursday or as you normal people call it, thanksgiving.  

have a good one.
