Empty Boxes

Transportation brought all of our things to us on Monday. We were all so excited, but we had forgotten what a pain it is to unpack all of our stuff. I had the movers go ahead and unpack my kitchen stuff for me (they always use the most paper for the kitchen stuff). Jason took the day off so we opened, emptied, and broke down as many boxes as we could (the movers take the trash away) before the movers were done. I could have had them unpack everything, but it is way more trouble than it is worth. Just as we got into a good rhythm Jason's phone rings, and I'll be damned if they aren't calling him into work. He helps me until the movers finish and then they all head out the door. Yeah me! I get to unpack everything AND deal with two children. Bless his heart, Jackson unpacked his entire room and organized it all by himself. He really did an amazing job of it! I unpacked Marley's room and organized it which seemed to keep her busy. The movers left me a phone number so that I could call them when I was done unpacking and they could come get the rest of the boxes. I spent Monday and Tuesday unpacking every box (nothing is in its place, but it is out of the boxes) so that I could have them get these boxes and get them out of my house. The entire spare room was floor to ceiling cardboard boxes, so I was excited when the movers picked it all up Tuesday afternoon. I never realized how many little decorations I had until I saw them all on top of, and underneath, my table! Hopefully we will have the entire house finished by the end of the weekend. I would take pictures, but I had to sacrifice my camera batteries so that Jackson could play the Wii.
