The Big Move

After months and months of waiting, the time finally came that we had to pack up everything and make the big move to Colorado. Here is Kenny packing up part of the kitchen. And this is our pile of stuff, or at least some of it. We rented a 14ft. truck, and had serious doubts about fitting it all into the truck.

This is the last night in our first home together. We lived here for almost two years, and it was a wonderful little place to start the beginning of our lives together. Our empty apartment. We were suppose to check out at 8 am, but our manager forgot about us. When we finally got a hold of our manager it was almost 9. But on the plus side I think she was a little lenient on the inspection. :)

Kenny behind the wheel of our Uhaul, pulling our little car. We got on the road about 10 and didn't get to our hotel until 830. It was a long drive. There weren't as many antelope this trip as there was when we went in June, so I couldn't even point them all out to keep myself entertained. Me, Nikki and Jeff outside of the truck at one of our pit stops. Jeff and Nikki were nice enough to drive our other car and help us move our stuff in. Unfortunately it wasn't the most exciting trip for them, but we were very grateful that they came out with us.

Unloading the truck.

This is the path that we had to walk to move everything in. The second set of stairs leads to our new apartment.Up these stairs. Here's Kenny at the top, looking handsome and tired. And then up another set of stairs. Luckily, it was only the twos sets of stairs.

And me, lifting this oh so heavy box. I really thought I was going to strain something. It took us about an hour and half to unload the truck. I was so tired, and sweaty and gross, along with everyone else. But we got it all to fit. Now we just need to make it a little more liveable.
